December is gone




Time flies when you're having fun and December is almost over, so before they shut down the Christmas markets we got to visit the one at Trocadero, by the Eiffel tower, and went back to the one on Champs Elysees, where the kids got to use the trampolines.









We tried to go ice skating at the rink at the Hotel de Ville, but after waiting in line for more than half an hour under the rain we decided to call it quits and instead found a warm place to have lunch. Being outdoors this time of year is easier if there's wine at hand, as demonstrated in the previous picture.




We went up to Montmartre with my niece Laura and visited the Dalí museum and had an early dinner at Le Consulat, one of the famous rendezvous places for artists 100 years ago that is now way overpriced and frequented only by foreigners.
