After getting to bed finally at 1:00 am last night, we got up at 6:00 am to make sure that Joe and Lessie could leave the apartment by 7:00 which they managed to do. I left the apartment at 8:30 to make my way down to the American Church in Paris. the weather was absolutely beautiful today, but quite cold so i put on my long underwear, heavy coat, gloves and ear muffs. I did stay warm, but had to keep moving to do so. I figured out the subway system to get close to there with no problem, and walked for about 20 minutes from the subway station.

On the way I saw:
this sculpture on the middle of a bridge leading across the Seine.

This humongous ( and I mean
really humongous) building with a glass roof called the Grand Palais. Bonnie tells me it's an exhibition hall that was built for one of the World's Fair exhibitions (she's never been in it...).

This thing called the Petit Palais (little palace) which is really huge and not petite at all. I'm told that it's incredible inside, but I didn't have time to see it.
