Day 8, April 8, 2009

Today we meet a very nice lady who has lived in Paris for a while. She is a friend of friend of my mom's. She told us about Paris and how we're really lucky that we got into that EABJM school, because aparently, it's REALLY hard to get into.
Then we went and walked around Paris. We decided to go to the Louve (yet again) but when we got there, there was a HUMONGO line! It's because those lucky French children don't have school on Wednesdays! poh. But their school day is longer. like 8:30 to 4? We decided not to go to the Louve and go tomorrow. We're really good at this Louve thing.
So we went back to a muesam that we saw when we came into town. But as we were walking there, we saw a carousel that was two stories high! We just had to go on it. We went on the top floor of course. I think the man who was running it go mad at me because I moved at last minute when the carousel started to go.
The exhibit at the muesam we were going to was called "Le Pitet Nicolas", which means "Little Nicholas" in French. The artist is a very famous one whose drawn a lot of covers for the the New Yorker. The artist draws illistrations for the book "Little Nicolas". His name is .
Little Nicolas is a little boy who is always getting into trouble. He is always doing something naughty, but is always very playful. Here is an exert from one of the books

"I ate candy, fries, carmels, and chocolates, and I got a lot of comics. But in the night, I didn't feel well. Neither did my mother."


Little Nicolas aparently threw up all over his bedroom. The pictures are funny. I got the book.

We also meant a very nice lady from Honaloulou who has been living in France for 30 years! We met her because the line to get in Little Nicolas took forever. They only let in a few people at a time.


TTFN- Sophie! luv 2 u all
