Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. --Mark Twain

More from la vie en Paris

Our last days in Paris were rather dreary...it was rather rainy and quite cold. We went over to the Latin Quarter and walked around for a little while, but then it started to rain quite hard. There's not much you can do in the rain, so we scooted in for a nice lunch. It was still raining, but we found this lovely church and decided to go in. Rainy days are perfect for church viewing! The church was Saint-Severin, and it was very lovely and quite interesting, as it was filled with information on its unique history.
















Outside the church, we heard chants (I thought it was monks or something), so we went outside to see what it was. There were about 50 kids at least all in a circle. It appeared that we were experiencing some sort of French girl scout/boy scout induction ceremony. It was neat to see.


French girl scouts!
Other than that, we kind of just hung out, ate lots of croissants and drank lots of cappucinos! We had to do some chores for part of our last day....it was time to do laudry, book our train tickets to Belgium, etc.






Paris at Night
As you may already know, we've been in Bruges, Belgium for the past two days....we'll have to tell you all about it another time!


Hoping everyone is doing wonderfullly!


Bisous,
