Weeks 2 & 3 continued

I could not get everything in on the below post. The last two weeks have been busy, so here is more! 


This Saturday was spent in the Opera Garnier area. The girls were happy that the day started off with a visit to the new Apple Store right next to the Opera house. It is certainly the nicest Apple store I have ever seen as it is in an old bank building and they have kept much of the old architecture and style. Beautiful. And as always, the Apple sales people were helpful (but we still don't have wifi!)


More importantly we did visit the Opera Garnier. What a stunning building, even the girls appreciated it and were in awe of the beauty and opulence. Gabrielle felt that a princess should be descending the stairs in a ball gown. We plan on attending a performance there soon in our new Parisian gowns! This was followed by a sushi lunch in an area referred to as Little Tokyo on Rue Sainte Anne and then coffee and the girls running off some energy in the beautiful square at the Palais Royale. A busy eight hour day for the three Tai girls and grandma. 


But the highlight of the past few weeks was lunch for Nathalie's birthday on a patio over looking la Tour Eiffel, Champs de Mars and the Seine on a beautiful, sun filled, hot day. The view was amazing, the food delicious and the company entertaining. Bon Anniversaire ma grande fille!
