Back to good ol' Paris. This time, we took a cab from the train station to a Marriott by the airport. We were able to check in early and we all rushed to take showers while we waited for room service to bring us breakfast. We felt much better once we were clean and full. Mamar decided that she'd had enough adventure and wanted to spend the day resting up for our return flight. The rest of us were tired too, but wanted one more chance to see the sights of Paris before we left.
We took the hotel shuttle to the airport where we hopped on a train to take us back into downtown Paris. We got off near Notre Dame, and stopped to have ice cream at a sidewalk cafe that looked out on the Seine.
We walked over to inspect Notre Dame up close.
Next, we walked along the Seine towards the Musee d'Orsay.
We spent the afternoon in the Orsay, seeing countless Degas, Renoir, Cezanne, Gaugauin, and Manet works. Heaven.
I think we would have stayed until they kicked us out if Linah's shoes hadn't been killing her feet. But, eventually, Avery and I took pity on her and agreed to say good bye to the Orsay and to Paris.
