Notre Dame

Today when we woke up there was no sitting around and hanging out. It was just get up and go. To...Notre Dame! We had to take a train 10 stops. When we got there, there was a big line, but luckily it went by fast. I was surprised at how fast it went by, because there were alot of people inside. Inside there was this LOUD organ music. I liked it a little, but I thought it was too loud. The ceiling seemed to me like a mile high. Then we came to a model of the whole Notre Dame. It was HUGE even in model form. Then there was another model that showed little people building the Notre Dame. We didn't go to the top though, since being in the Eiffel Tower and the hot air balloon we just didn't want to. After that we went to a big park called Luxembourg and in the center there was a little lake where you could rent mini-sailboats and sail them around the lake. We got one, of course, and we played with it. It got stuck once on a little duck house in the middle of the pond, but the wind blew it loose. When it got stuck a second time it didn't come loose for 10 or 15 minutes. We had to ask the lady to help us. To our surprise, she jumped in with her long waterproof boots and got the boat free. She helped some other boats too while she was in there.

  1. Okay, so next time you're in the guest room of our house in Woodstock you can look at the big painting reproduction on the wall and know what it is, with nobody even telling you!
