Our Travels: September 26th, 2011

Another fairly uneventful day today.

Before we left for Paris, we were reading a book by Rick Steves to learn a bit more about traveling through Europe. One of the general pieces of advice he offered was to not attempt activities every single day during a vacation, and to allow yourself a day or two here and there to simply relax. With so much time remaining here makes it a bit easier to follow this advice.

We went for another big walk to explore our surroundings. This time we headed North. Not a much to see in the direction but we passed the park each way and Nicholas was able to play. After coming home and having lunch Nicholas and I went to a different park to play in the sand box. He brought three toys (a car, truck and train) with him and shared really well. But when a little girl wanted her shovel back, and expressed this in French to Nicholas, we had a bit of an issue. It's hard enough for a kid Nicholas' age to share, but to share in different languages was too much to ask.

We are hoping we’ll be up in time to go to the Luxemburg Gardens tomorrow, maybe we should set our alarm.

Love,
Laura, Brendan and Nicholas
