i am such a tourist
but there’s nothing really wrong with that, is there?(:
we took the subway to the Musée du Louvre and mom just would not stop taking pictures. in hindsight, i guess it was a good thing… but at that time it felt kind of silly and downright exhausting.
(these are all from mom’s camera, because i forgot to charge mine before leaving. really, who does that?)
anyway…
the Louvre is everything i’d ever imagined it to be… and so much more. *sigh*
you’re really not supposed to touch anything in the museum. but i was playing where’s waldo the whole time and getting my hands on everything. very, very bad tourist.
after a tiring tour of the museum, it was time to eat. i nearly chipped my tooth after taking a bite out of the baguette! it was yummy though.(:
we then took the subway to the Notre Dame de Paris, and after this shot was taken, the camera’s battery died. good times.

we spent about half an hour in the Church, and as we got out, i realized i actually lost my hat (don’t ask me how). so i spent another 30 mins looking for it, but it was never found. sad.
