Paris...more adventures...

And finally...in front of the famous Louvre piramid...Have to say I have thought of Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code at this time...:)

Opposite that view are the Tulleries gardens- the big gardens by the Louvre and another smaller arch...

...and these gardens are the place where I received THE CALL...the invitation to come to an interview for the job that I finally got :)

And this naturally made me my Goofy and happy self again :)


And thus ended the very first day...filled with fun. So we had to celebrate with a very yummy mediteranean cous cous dinner made by our very own...JJ!

And naturally it would not be the same without some...amazing italian Ice Cream.

Next day came the very beautiful Brussels gardens...where people just sit around this fountain for instance on chairs and smooch and chill all Sunday morning...

and after that we walked around the Invalides Dome.

Louis the XIVth ordered a building in 1670 that would be a home and a hospital for aged and unwell soldiers and this is where the name comes from: hopital des invalides.

The chapel is the home of many famous toumbs, amongst which that of Napolepn Bonaparte.

More adventures to come...the Champs Elysees, the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomf and more...
