The umbrellas were out today, not to keep out the sun, but to deal with the ongoing rainy season in Paris! We were scheduled to have a picnic on the lawn of the Eiffel Tower today, with friends from Holland, MI: Bruce and Carla Masselink and their friends, Arnie and Hazel DeFeyter. The week previous they enjoyed a canal/bike trip in the Netherlands (with decent weather), only to put up with rain showers while in Paris!
They brought sandwiches and pastries, and we had animated conversation, especially doing the Holland crossword (who's related to who)...... They wanted to get a couple hours in the Louvre Museum yet, so on they went on bus 69, to meet up with their son Reid.
Reid and his wife, Nathalie, (French) are expecting their first child in August. Reid and Nathalie are both in the art "business" Reid is a painter, and Nathalie buys and sells paintings. We had dinner with them earlier on in our stay here.
