<\/p>\nParis in the month of April dances with fragrance and flowers. The glorious colors of tulips, daffodils, cherry and apple blossoms among other varieties of flowers are everywhere.<\/p>\n
All we wanted to do was relax and enjoy each fleeting moment, holding on to the unique ambiance for as long as it would last, but we had too much to do and see.<\/p>\n
On our first morning we walked down the Champs-Elysees and through the Jardin Des Tuileries. We visited Notre Dame and its Bell Tower.<\/p>\n
We had so much to do in such a short time, and we could feel the energy of Paris combined with our excitement.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
First on our list was showing Kendall the Louvre Museum, the central landmark of Paris, France.<\/p>\n
It’s one of the worlds largest museums and a historic monument. Showing her the Louvre, watching her admiring the masters and sharing which ones she liked the most was wonderful.<\/p>\n
With over a million pieces of art, you could spend a month in the Louvre and still not see everything.<\/p>\n
We had a wonderful tour guide who showed us the main works of art, such as the Mona Lisa, Venus de Milo, Winged Victory of Samothrace, Davids\u2019s Coronation of Napoleon, and much more. We saw the Louvres’s incredible collection of Egyptian art and Greek Sculpture.<\/p>\n
A tour of Napoleon lll’s private apartments was a perfect way to end our tour. It gave us a rare insight itno the privileged lives of the emperor and empresses who ruled France over a period of 23 years.<\/p>\n
We visited the Musee D’Orsay and she loved the great artists Degas, Monet, Manet, and Van Gogh. <\/p>\n
A trip to the Palace of Versailles, located outside the city was something I certainly wanted Kendall to experience. We spent a whole day exploring the palace, learning about the gardens and Marie Antoinettes’s Estate.<\/p>\n
Versailles is probably the most famous example of architectural bling in history, and the elaborate gardens that surround the palace are masterpieces of design: flowerbeds with precision cut hedges in the form of flor-de-lys, manicured lawns, trees pruned and contorted into seamless geometrical shapes, and golden cascading fountains. These are just a fraction of the startling things to be seen at the Palace of Versailles.<\/p>\n
I’ll share with you my love of french skin care (and champagne) in my next blog.<\/p>\n
Avec amour,
