So long, farewell

We bid adieu to Paris and our European adventure. On our last day, we visited the Musee d'Orsay which is a marvel for its late 19th century art collection as well as its home in the former Gare d'Orsay. While we enjoyed the Impressionist artists on the fifth floor, we stood for a long time in front of Chenavard's Divina Tragedia and picked out all the Roman gods that we could recognize (there's the benefit of reading 3 Percy Jackson novels). The girls posted their final pics here.

Our final afternoon was slowish, as we did some last-minute shopping (finding comfortable clothes for Anna who wore exactly 7 garments - not including a daily change of underwear - over the last 5 weeks). Once again facing a craving for non-French food, we had Indian food for dinner (yummmm) and then went home to pack.

The girls reflect on their trip and model their new French attire below.
