Last day in Paris

Cold and a bit snowy. We braved a walk along many old Paris streets, eating our way from one end to the other. We met Larry's cousin Amos for lunch. Lovely end to a wonderful week.

Musee D'Orsay and the Catacombs

Can't take photos at the D'Orsay so my photos are from the Catacombs. Thought it would be creepy but really wasn't. Ended the night with awful pink champagne.

Palace at Versaille

Very beautiful but the grounds were frozen so we couldn't appreciate the elaborate grounds and gardens

Time to wash Larry's car today.
Spent most of the day assembling and ragging my very first quilt.
It is done and so cute!
