Mon Dieu, Le Tuileries, a wee small Musee and in search of Cadell

Bonjour Mes Amies,

What a splendiferous day. Started out with mass (unintentionally let me tell you) at Notre Dame. Totally forgot it was a Sunday and full of people worshipping. Had the beautiful opportunity though to listen to the most wonderful choir in a building with brilliant acoustics. Amazing.

Followed this with a wander up to the most grand building - the Louvre which apparently was originally built as a fortress palace for the Kings and Queens. It is MASSIVE. Even if one just took a passing glance at every piece of artwork in the Louvre, it would take at least nine months so a heads up to our work colleagues, we might be a little late getting back to work!!!!!! We are heading inside later in the week.

After that we ambles through Le Jardines Tuileries. It was all structured lines and statues but with some glorious flower beds of sage, salvias, dahlias and other perennials. Then onto Champs Élysées to re-enact the triumphant ride of Cadell but in a more pedestrian modality,

Siobhan erased more of the coating off the credit card at a great shop called Massimo Duttiand then it was time for a leisurely lunch and Fume and a dessert to die for of citrus custard and the raspberriest raspberries you have ever tasted. This place is incapable of producing bad food and wine - at least that is our experience thus far!

Am too tired to continue folks but will fill you in on our trip to Tour Eiffel and our boat trip on the Seine tomorrow

Bon soir

Kelly & Siobhan
