Troy had meetings scheduled for the first 2 working days of the year, then epiphany is a holiday in Bavaria & the girls weren’t going back to school until the 7th, so we thought that we would all join him in Paris for a few days. A great excuse to see friends & celebrate the new year in our favorite city.
After arriving we immediately headed for the Jardin d’Acclimatation for some running around time (in the freezing cold) before enjoying a little room service. (Troy travels a lot so he is used to it, but for me, room service is the ultimate splurge – and we brought out own wine!) Anyway, back to the park… The girls loved the hall of mirrors. Sophia was so excited to show Troy how she was able to ride the horses, among other rides, all by herself!
Alexandra was ok at the beginning of the ride with Sophia, and then totally lost it. The man working on the ride kept counting the laps down to her, in French, hoping to make her feel better. Sophia paddled around in her princess canoe and we all took our time with the percussion instruments Sophia spotted Guignol’s van, and we promised her a puppet show after church tomorrow and the trampoline is always a hit, except when you are too little or too old to jump, and then it’s just time to go back to the hotel & get warm!! and the train ride back…
