honeymoon (part 3)

IMG_2275On our last day in Paris we walked to the Jardin du Luxembourg with a baguette and soft cheese. Why is the cheese so good?? It was hot out, so we snagged some grass in the shade among and ate our (now VERY) soft cheese. While Dan relaxed and cooled off a bit I strolled through the gardens and took a few photos.IMG_2269 IMG_2277^^Reminds me of the lions outside the Art Institute of Chicago!

The museum used to be a hotel, and looks like a beautiful old mansion surrounded by beautiful gardens. I loved it here.IMG_2293 IMG_2325 IMG_2324 IMG_2322 IMG_2318 IMG_2313 IMG_2309 IMG_2308^^Dan’s holding a bottle of Amer Picon that he picked up on our walk from Jardin du Luxembourg to the Musee Rodin. He traveled with it all the way back to Los Angeles for a very special upcoming Whaling Club.

We strolled back through Le Marais toward our flat, ate a nutella crepe, and stopped to have a few glasses of red wine and peanuts at a sidewalk cafe. Such a picturesque last night in Paris! In the morning we left our sweet Parisian flat and took the Eurostar to London. Last honeymoon post and London pictures up next!
