double decker bus tour - with gram!

saturday morning, gram arrived in paris!  it was really nice of her to come join us - i knew i would really appreciate the help on the flight back home, and this way she could be there to see daddy on his birthday.

after a train ride to the notre dame area, and a crepe snack (of course!) - we were ready to see a few sights. 
the weather on the weekend wasn't as perfect as it had been all week, but we braved the chill on the double decker bus tour anyway.
AMAZING details!

spent quite a bit of time gawking at the "old lady," but had gotten cold enough by this point to head to the lower level of the bus.  couldn't see much from down there, so no more scenery pics today! 

we eventually headed back for supper at the creperie near the hotel. we certainly enjoyed it before, and hoped gram would too!

the "especial" - black currant sorbet, whipped cream, and black currant syrup



hard to pick out pictures from alllllll we took!  there'll be one more post, and then i'll find something else to blah-g on about.
