Part 1/3

There's a reason I should be writing every night instead of waiting two days to update on adventures. Before Deaf cultural adventures in Paris, I spent the afternoon with Elizabeth and Katie

and then planned to scoot my way across the Seine to visit the School for the Deaf. On my way, I stopped at L'Hotel de Ville Paris for an exhibition on human rights sponsored by Amnesty International. Here are a few pictures from that visit:

I scooted across the Seine to find lunch on my way to the School for the Deaf, and decided to stop at Le Cathedrale Notre Dame to eat and people watch.





I finally made my way to the School for the Deaf, the details of which are posted in an earlier entry. After I left the school, I realized I was in the same neighborhood in which I stayed 6 years ago during my Paris trip with Elmira College. I walked down our old street (rue d'Assas), stopped at the gelato cafe that you could see and smell from my balcony, and spent some time in les Jardins Luxembourg like I did the last time I was here. It was beautiful! Here are pictures from that walk down memory lane:







For the rest of the pictures and the rest of the story, please see Facebook and earlier posts:)

More to come!
a bientôt
