Well, I didn't get a lot of photos today of stuff, just some photos of kids. We started out on a trip to Versailles, we ended up walking for a bit in Versailles and enjoying some coffee in a little brasserie en route. We played lost and found in Versailles (!), but ended up with everybody found :-) Lunch in the gardens of Versailles, then we rushed back to Paris to meet up with Eloise, Kathleen's French student from the exchange 3 years ago (!) who came up from Blois with her mom and a friend to meet us in the Place des Vosges, a beautiful Rennaissance square. We visited Victor Hugo's house in the Place des Vosges, then relaxed over coffee again (ah, this cafe lifestyle!!), and said good bye to Eloise in the Place de la Bastille. Headed back to the residence for supper, then out to find Heather a t-shirt from the Hard Rock Cafe Paris. Success! We have walked about 3,000 miles in the last two days, and the students are thinking their track coach is going to be very happy with their thighs and calves when the season starts ... Packing tonight, last day in Paris tomorrow before our train to Bruyeres!!

First Day in Paris!!
We waited for hours in security. People got a little silly.
We took buses and planes and trains and didn't sleep much and finally got to our hostel at about noon on Sunday French time (6
am NY time!): Ready to go out and explore the city!
