Our last full day in Paris was spent at the Louvre (most famous for being the location of the international smash hit the Da Vinci Code).  We also took a wonderful night time cruise down the Seine.

Yesterday we reluctantly left Paris for Bruges.  We spent 4-5 hours cruising the French countryside crisscrossing innumerable French villages in our stylish Hertz-provided Prius.  Bruges is ridiculous. Every little alley leads to a new medieval scene worthy of a postcard. Awesome beer and amazing chocolate.  Anna has grown a half inch.

Ridiculous

Ridiculous

Today we go to the Abbey of St. Sixtus to pick up the world’s best beer.
