A sad day in Paris

We were very sad today since it was the last day, in paris. We were exited since we got to get our souveniours. Since my brother gave me the fever and got my mom sick, my mom didn't want to walk that day so she decided not to come. We first walked a while and until we got to the metro station which we would take to Sacrecour, a church with one of the best views of paris. Once we climbed the stairs to the church we saw the most amazing view. We could see almost all of Paris, then we went into the church. The church was bigger then most churches but not as big as notre dame. There was a lot of stained glass just like at Saint Chapelle but not at all as much. After we left the church we went down back to the street and since my dad wasn't feeling good we went to the pharmacy to get medicine. After we left we went got on another metro to a station towards the Seine river. After we found a stand to get lunch we ate by the river before heading to the Holocaust museum. At the holcaust museum we saw names of all the french people that were killed by the nazi's. There were four or five walls listed of people that were killed. There were also pictures of children younger then me that were killed, even infants. After we left the holocaust museum we walked to the red wagon bookstore and my brother got a book to read. Finally, we went to the pompidou (an art museum) to pick out souveniours. My sister got a striped purse and my brother got his face drawn in a funny way and I just got my faced drawn. I had to stay perfectly still as he sketched for twenty minutes. Once we had all gotten our things, we headed home where my brother and dad got food from the grocery store for dinner. After we had eaten, we all blogged for a while while my mom and dad went to cafe. When they got back we went to bed.
