Wednesday

Today we slept in a bit and hit the Louvre in the late morning. We
took the Rick Steves audio tour, which is a nice breezy over you. Just
enough to figure out people have been ripping off the Greeks over and
over again for hundreds of years.

We ate lunch at an awesome seafood cafe, where they literally pulled
the oysters out of the ice and handed them to us.

We walked the Tuilleries Gardens and had pastries at Laudree (they
provided the pastries for Sophia Coppola's Marie Antoinette).

Then we walked the Champs Elysee to the Arc de Triomphe and did our
first bit of shopping.

We took a sunset boat tour on the Seine and a great dinner at Chez
Omar, a Morrocan restaurant.

A pretty fantastic day and now that we have all the must sees checked
off our list we can really enjoy the city...and do some major
shopping!

Are you still having a great time? I'm a little worried, you havn't posted since Wednesday. I though you would post everyday, but then you went shopping...
Call me when you get home.
