Day 24: Paris (Dad)

Posted on August 23, 2008 in Buy tadalafil (Category: Default)

Today we left around 10:00 to go see museums. Eleanor stayed behind because she suddenly threw up last night. Now we're not sure whether "it" is a remainder from India, or perhaps this strange food from France! We went to the Musee D'Orsay which was extremely crowded; had to wait in line for nearly an hour just to get in . By early afternoon we were finished with that. It seemed to have a smaller number of exhibits than I had remembered. We saw the "usual suspects" Gaugin, Monet, Manet, Cezanne, Van Gogh and that crowd, though Matisse was mysteriously missing and for some reasoon Whistler's Mother was in the lineup.

Here's one of Vince's best, in my opinion:


Aftger we left the museum, the plan was to do some shopping then head over to the Rodin, but it was raining and K was still not fully recovered from her relapse and J didn't have her umbrella so I "escorted" them back as far as their metro stop, then JE and I turned around and went back to the left bank where we walked the streets, looking at boutiques which turned out to be mostly for women - fancy that. Back at the hotel by 5:00; the girls were all asleep. I tried to wake them again at 6:00 but no answer so I went out and did laundry. Finally at 8:00 we all went out for our last dinner, to a neighborhood bistro where they have a reasonable fixed price menu of "only" 10.50 Euros per person for an entry, main dish and desert. That's $13 per person. Yikes! I know that sounds reasonable for a family that is going out to dinner, but not if you are doing it every lunch and every dinner!
