We spent a week in Paris during Mallory and Shane's Fall break. Despite the constant rain, we really loved Paris :-)
We used the Metro to get around
First stop - the annual Salon du Chocolat...a truly delectable chocolate exhibition
Even the clothing was made out of chocolate!
Shane and Mallory were mesmerized...or over-sugared with all of the freebies
Eiffel Towers made of chocolate were very tempting

Shane was thrilled to see the Mona Lisa
Mallory particularly liked Winged Victory
But I think the mummies ruled the day!
Since were were there on Halloween Day, it made perfect sense to spend most of our time in the mummy section!
Mallory enjoyed the Parisian fashions...here she is modeling a new jacket
We spent one rainy day walking around Saint-Germain-des-Pres, Notre Dame and the Marais district
Shane and Julie in a rare, dry moment, in front of Notre Dame
Shane fell in love with the pigeons, who obviously liked his hand-outs 
After all that walking, we relaxed like true Parisians, with "deux cafes, deux chocolats chauds et quatre pain du chocolat!"
And we loved the Luxembourg Garden where we watched a marionette show and Mallory and Shane burned off some energy

It was a wet, but wonderful, week!
