Parisian (Good) Crumbs

We left for Paris on Friday extremely early in the morning. I had to wake up at 4:45 am. A long walk, a bus ride, a plane flight, and a taxi ride later we arrived at our hotel in Paris. The Marriott (my mom used some sort of points to get us the room for free!) was perpendicular to the Tuilleries and just down the street from the Louvre, across the Seine from the Musee d'Orsay. In other words, a perfect location. We only had to walk a couple minutes to get into the Marais district, which we love.
We spent Friday napping (we had to to function) and just roaming the streets of Paris looking at shops. Saturday we did some of the same, but it was rainy. We found a place to get our hair cut despite it being All Saints Day (many things were closed). This tiny salon was run by a man of about fifty who spoke only French. I don't remember any French really. So I was only able to tell him how short was too short. And I vaguely let him know that anything else was fine. He cut my hair first, surprising me by giving me bangs. It looked great though! And then he cut my mom's hair, probably way too short and kind of big on top. She doesn't hate it. I think it looks pretty good except for the top, which someone back home can probably fix for her.
Sunday we went to the Musee d'Orsay which was just amazing. My mom got to see Monet paintings in person for the first time since she was a child and first fell in love with the artist. She cried a little. It was sweet. Nowhere near enough croissants and chocolate later, we had to leave.
