My second day in France was amazing, but everybody was totally exhausted for the first half of the day, in which we went to the Louve (and saw the mona Lisa)- ironically, my favorite thing in that whole museum was a tiny ancient Egyptian bead made of stone. After this, we went to a really, really French cafe with cheese and really rich hot chocolate. We also went to a taxidermy shop in which I purchased a copious amount of insect parts for a very good price (art shall ensue). We also did tons of exploring and went to a famous, really adorable tea shop that really reminds me of Mendel's in The Grand Budapest Hotel. On a weird and artistic note- I found these super creepy mannequins that have really long necks, and nothing but little full lips on their smooth faces; I have done some art inspired by them and hope that drawing them more often will allow me to gain some mastery of the human form. Congratulations on finishing the art class- I am so proud of you. Also, are you leaving for Ohio tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?
I miss you so much Geena- it's gonna be really strange to be in California without you.
