To start our third day off, we went to the Louvre, crossing paths with the marathon on our way. Once there we enjoyed a lovely tour led by a fourth Caroline, which included some selfies with Mona.
After a picnic on the lawns outside the Louvre, we headed to the lock bridge. There we were overwhelmed by the love in the air.
Continuing our tour, we went to Paris's oldest opera house then preceded to march up the long steps of Mont Martre where many Impressionist artists lived and worked. We enjoyed some free time drinking coffee, eating crepes, and admiring the local artwork. We then had a traditional french dinner at La Bonne Franquette, which included some interesting cabaret dancers ;)
After dinner we briefly strolled through the red light district, passing by the famous Moulin Rouge before returning, exhausted, to our hotel to begin packing for Caen.
It was a great, fun-filled day à Paris! Can't wait for more!
