Just another day in Paris

The day started great as I slept in and Sherrie went for a run and picked up breakfast! After a lazy morning we headed out and started our tourism with the Arc de Triomphe.  It is an amazing building with stunning statues but somehow the best part is being at the center of the city with it expanding out in every direction.  After that we headed to the l'Orangerie which is filled with works from many impressionist artists like Monet, Renoir, and Cezanne...not to mention a few by Picasso and Mattisse.   So, inspired by those masters,  we headed to a display of new artists whose studios are all in the same building...a much different venue for sure, but fun and interesting as well. The forcasted rain showed up and we headed underground to the metro for our commute home. We have finally discovered the exit that pops us up on the same side of the street as our flat! Crossing the street can be the hardest part of the trip.
