Matthew Visit

My little brother arrived today! It's his very first time overseas, so I'm really excited to get to show him around.

We actually started with a trip to Monoprix, so he got to see the gigantic yogurt and cheese sections that we get here. The purpose though was to get some trash bags and some tape, as our bedroom door has somehow broken and now won't stay closed.

We then went to Père Lachaise which is the most impressive cemetery in Paris. I had already been, but Kara hadn't, and knowing where all the famous people are buried isn't easy the first time through, even with a guidebook. 

Then we went to Montmartre and because Matthew's a big fan of Amelie too, we kind of re-did the Amelie day Kara and I did back in October. This time we ate lunch at Cafe des 2 Moulins (2 Windmill Cafe) and got some banana-nutella crepes to eat in front of the Sacré Cœur. After a quick nap back at home, we went to see How To Become Parisian in One Hour which we'd also seen back in November, but thought Matthew would enjoy it and he did. 

We finished the night getting cupcakes at a delicious mini cupcake store that is the smallest bakery ever (literally cannot fit more than 3 people inside) near us. Strawberry, Lemon, Nutella, and Chocolate were ours!
