Paris, Day One

We went to Paris over Easter weekend. It was great! Weather was warm but not hot. It was packed with tourists, but not too bad in the places we chose to go. And, although our hotel somehow did not have a record of our reservation (a reminder to always phone first!) they did have a room, that was in fact less expensive than the one I had first booked. Eliot slept overnight in a non-crib bed for the first time and actually stayed in it all night, both nights. He did take some extra convincing to go to bed, though. The first photo is in Place des Vosges, a great hang out on a nice day, which clearly a lot of people think. I had never been here before.
Eliot made a friend at this park, bringing the baby leaves and flowers that had fallen from trees. The baby's parents were getting a kick out of it. Eliot also tried to distribute leaves to pigeons, but they eschewed his efforts, to his frustration.
Eliot and Chris feel the soft leaves of the trees in a different garden.
And, we happened upon this little concert. Eliot is a fan of classical music and especially likes the violin, so he was listening attentively.
