On Thursday Morning the four of us went to the Notre Dame Cathedral. It is am absolutely incredible building. It was completed in 1345. The inside it just as impressive as the outside. The stained glass and architecture are so beautiful.
After visiting the inside of Notre Dame Mom and Ellie went to Trocadero. Dad and I went to the Musee d'Orsay. The Musee d'Orsay has the largest collection of impressionist paintings in the Entire world. In the museum they had probably close to 50 paintings by Monet. They also have paintings by Van Gogh, Gauguin, Manet, Degas and many more of the impressionists. The museum is in a renovated train station, which was really cool. The museum does not let visitors take photos so I found some of my favorites online so you all could see.

After visiting the museums we went to see the Eiffel tower at night. It is even more amazing at night than it is in the day. Every hour is has lights that flash on it making it look like is is glittering. It was a perfect way to spend our las night in Paris.
