Awakening at 7:30 this Sunday we take the road to Poigny la Forest, a small village lost in the Yvelines countryside, towards Rambouillet, at the west of Paris.
To honor Grandfather which we celebrate 85 years, the girls dressed in pretty dresses!
As we drove well, we decided not to circumvent Paris to save time, but to cross Paris.
Samantha was able to see the Department of Finance at Bercy, which spans the Seine, the statue of St. Genevieve protects Paris, the Jardin des Plantes, the University of Jussieu Sicences, dock Montebello, the booksellers, Notre Dame de Paris and the Ile de la Cité, the riverboats on the Seine, the French Academy, the Senate, the Place de la Concorde, the Tuileries Gardens, the Louvre, the Grand Palais, the EIFFEL TOWER.
We walked down the Champs Elysees to the Arc de Triomphe, and we have seen the business district of La Défense.
We will come back to Paris to see all it in detail!

The birthday cake
Before driving back to Chalons, we'll have a coffee and eat some cookies from Uncle Patrick, the eldest brother of Anne-Pascale, who lives a few miles from the inn.
Guinness the dog is crazy and jump all over the place, then the children took refuge on the trampoline!
We visit the stables where Cousin Floriane (18 years old) works: she learns to become ethologist.
The day was long and the children have much entertained themselves. Do you think they are asleep of tiredness in the car?
The girls laughed and told jokes are during the 3:30 return trip !!
Laurent and I were arrived so tired, but no the children !
