Paris- Day 7
& on the last day in Paris, we saw a French cat! We went to a cafe for breakfast and there was a sweet cat that lived there. He definitely had a mind of his own but he was adorable, nonetheless.

Paris- Traveling and Day One
Let’s rewind to January 2024. I get a text from my parents to call them. They had read an article that said that you could go to Paris for the Olympics at a reasonable price-think flights, hotel, and tickets to events.
