A message from the swassmaster...
Hopefully you all can figure out what THAT title means...
Alrighty, so we are in Paris, France. Home of the Mona Lisa (saw it), Arc de Triumph (saw it), Eiffel Tower (did it), Sacre Cour (saw it), Monet museum (saw it+ loved it), Moulin Rouge (saw it), Louvre museum (saw it), Notre Dame (saw it), and many many good shopping spots (did that and then some...) As you can tell, we have been very very busy. We arrived Monday night, and took it easy. But Tuesday was a very busy day that we are still recovering from. My absolute favourite sight was the Monet museum, Caitlin and I went Tuesday morning while Kristen went to Musee D'Orsay. I loved his waterlillies and spent a fair amount of money at the gift shop. today at the Louvre we saw many many works of art. some of the more famous ones include Mona Lisa, Aphrodite, the raft of medusa, Michelangelo's dying slave, and much more. It was very cool, although the cattle-herd syndrome was apparent as it was very crowded and full of obnoxious tour groups, who we have evil thoughts of everytime we see one. tomorrow we fly to London, where everyone speaks english, hooray! Then only four more sleeps until home!
sorry i am nowhere near as clever or witty as kristen, but hopefully you all havent forgotten us and are counting down our homecoming just like we are! See you on Monday!

hello. i would just like to say that although i love and miss all you folks back in canada, i am not counting down the days to our homecoming. the free and easy french life suits me very well, thank you, and although it will indeed be nice to be again immersed in my native tongue, fairview pool does not hold enough charm to make me prefer it over champs elysees.
