Today (11th of June) we caught the train to London and then a train to Paris! We arrived at our hotel (an apartment!).

Today (12th of June) I went to the Musee D’Orsay – an art museum and saw some of Vincent Van Goghs art. He is my favourite artist. I also saw the Eiffel tower for the first time and my Dad pulled my tooth out.

Our local produce market….

Today (13th of June) I went to one of the most famous churches in the world – Notre Dame.

Today (14th of June) I went to the Eiffel Tower. I went to the very top. I felt….scared, excited, small, tired (from walking up all those steps). It looked huge, dangerous and gold.

The local “rats” at Sacre Coeur

We had dinner on a boat!

Today (15th of June) we went to the Musee de L’Orangerie. We saw Monet’s Water Lily paintings. One of them had a tree in it and the leaves were weeping down to the water. When you were up close the water lilies looked like a splodge but looked like a proper water lily when you were further away.

Then I went on an overnight train. I got to go on the top bunk……YES! It was fun but I couldn’t sleep well with all the noise 😦

Today (9th of June) we caught the train to see Rob and Sam and meet Thomas (who is 3). They have a three storey house + a basement and I slept on the top floor – next to Thomas’ room. All I could do was play with Thomas! It was raining. Every night I would have to calm Thomas down as he would get upset and I read him a story before he went to sleep.
