Paris part 1

Ok, so Caroline is not as strong as she looks. It is generally faster for Matt to carry both backpacks.


We watched the sun go down whilst waiting for the Bastille Day fireworks to begin.





Matt has poke neck out the front of this lovely old bookshop.


Notre Dame.


Do we look Frnch? People keep asking us for directions.


This is the only Eifel tower shot Dad I promise.


The view out of our appartment window.


We liked the ceiling better than most of the art.


Actually, if you look really closely you can see the Eifel Tower in this one too but I dont think it really counts.
So far we are having a great time in Paris but our French sucks. We basically just talk in English with a French accent. The locals have been very accepting thus far. Ok, we are going to get some nutella crepes.
Caroline gives Paris part one 8.5, on par with London. Matt still does not do scores.
Thanks for the comments, its nice to know youre still there!

  1. 8.5 is really high! Higher than all the scores you ever gave at JMS, except for the day that you weren't here, which you gave a 10! Well you guys do look extremely french, bet you are fooling everyone with your lovely french accents :D Poor matt, tell him to watch out for his back carrying two bags at the same time. He looks like a turtle with a shell on the front and the back! hehe.. xxx michelle , this is the highlight of my day reading your blog.. life at JMS is insanely busy!

  2. is 8.5 just your standard score? if you only use one score it's the same as Mat's non vote...

    nutella crepes are awesome!

  3. Joel liked your pictures, especially the one of him! He went to the circus "there were no Dumbos (elephants) I go on bouncy castle and cup of tea ride".
    We are all going good, Oscar says hi & can't wait for a cuddle! Xx
