Anna giving her duck a kiss. "MMMMMMM"


End of the kiss.

We wanted to check out a Parisian department store (where department stores were born!) but the first (La Samaritaine) was closed "for security reasons" so we got on the subway and went to Le Bon Marche. While there we ate some lunch and then walked back to the apartment through some misting/rain.

Craig stayed at the apartment while Anna napped and Anita & I headed over to Angelina for some famous chocolat chaud. This place was not advertised as being kid-friendly so I wanted to take Anita there without Anna. I think Anna could handle it when she is about eight. Anyway, the tearoom was really fancy and we split three pastries. I got the chocolat africain and Anita got a cafe viennoise. It was all super rich and decadent and we were lucky we got there when we did, we barely had to wait, but by the time we were to be seated (and on our way out) there were lines almost to the door!

Anita & Anna shared a crepe for dinner and Craig and I went out for Raclette after Anna went to bed (Craig had a delicious tarteiflette that we would like to try to make sometime!).

Anna has gotten to the point (yesterday, actually) where she would cry for about 30 seconds when we would lay her down for a nap or bed and then we wouldn't hear from her until morning. (Just like at home except at home she doesn't typically cry at all.)
