Lucky us-- Claire's grandmother gifts her grandchildren a trip to wherever they want to go for their 12th birthday. We were in the midst of the pandemic when Claire turned 12, so her trip was put on hold. Since we were already in Europe, and Claire's dream trip was to visit Paris, her sweet Marmi decided to send the four of us to France! We stayed four nights at a lovely boutique hotel and did as many things as we could do with two kids and a dad on crutches.
Here are some of our favorite moments:
Day 1: Arc de Triomphe, Hotel des Invalides, Champs Elysees
Day 2: Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame, Waffles, Evening Boat Cruise on the Seine, Hot Chocolate & Macarons
Day 3: Musee d'Orsay VanGogh Exhibit, Wine & Orchids, Rodin Sculpture Museum, Rainy NeoGothic Evening, Fancy French Cuisine
Day 4: Girls Trip to Versailles, Boys Trip to Eiffel Tower, Birthday Shopping at Galeries Lafayette, Eclair!
