Musee D'Orsay

We had one day that we did not hang out with Kathy and Rick. They went Christmas shopping while we went to the Musee D'Orsay. It was wonderful and Julien enjoyed it more than I expected. He loved looking at the paintings and sculptures, especially of recognizable subjects. His favorite was probably Seurat's Circus. After seeing that painting Julien finally agreed that he would like to go to the circus (which we did a couple nights later). After the museum we went to the Marais district where Julien rode another carousel, this time a motor cycle. We went to L'As du Falafel (a recommendation from Jan) which was really great. Even Julien loved his falafel! It was very crowded and Chic in a very international way. We then went to the Bon Marche and looked at the charming window displays. One little girl kept talking to Julien in French, but Julien, not understanding what she was saying, just stared at her a smiled.
