Day 3 - Tuesday - Last Day!
Decided not to do much today.
Went to visit Tom, one of the Boy's friend's from his year out in Brazil. Tom's Australian and lives in Paris with his French girlfriend on his ERASMUS year in uni.
And yes, I do feel a slight twinge of envy.
Anyway, Tom's place in Paris is awesome. It's small but cosy. I'll just say you can tell that a girl lives there. We brought some wine so we had salad, a baguette and cheese and the wine. The Boy and Tom were catching up on good times. Tom had to go pick up and babysit a little girl from school at 4pm so they had to cut their time short.
We walked around the Latin Quarter again bu it was raining so we ducked into Notre Dame Cathedral to escape the wetness. No queues this time.
When we got out, it was sunny!
But still a bit chilly. The Boy was wearing just a hoody over a t-shirt so he was a bit wet and therefore cold.
Had a spot of lunch at a nearby traiteur (caterer) d'Asique (Asian) - basically Asian buffet. The boy got nice and warm while we scoffed into some good filling food.
Headed down to Pont Neuf (Bridge Nine) to go on our pre-paid boat ride!
Turns out the Boy had already been before. Pooh.
Saw some amazing sights as well as learned some interesting things about Paris' history via the monuments and statutes.

Alexandra III bridge - the most beautiful bridge in Paris. Built to commemorate the friendship between France and Russia!
Last night, we had to go to the Louvre. It's just got some magic about it at night.
