The French word for window-shopping (faire du lèche-vitrines) is literally window-licking. Well, that is about all we could do on the Champs-Élysées, as the prices are very up-scale. We did acquire two items:
#1 Dad got a bag from the Louis Vitton flagship store😄 Don't get too excited--he noticed that they had a sales representative standing at the door placing your wet umbrella in a special machine that dried and bagged it. So, Dad being Dad, went in so he could say he "got a bag from Louis Vitton's". #2 We bought four macarons at Ladurée. The licorice was a mistake--the pistachio was yummy. They didn't make it home to the apartment. Along with our magical morning with Monet's murals at the Musée de l'Orangerie, this all added up to another unique (albeit rainy) day in Paris. Living and Loving the City of Light. You are Always in my Prayers. Love Mom. P.S. Sad, but true, there is a McDonalds on the Champs-Élysées

Mr. H: I am enjoying having a membership to the Louvre and being able to go over and over and see a little bit of it at a time.
