Seph in front of Sacre Coeur Basillica

Hermione - Up the Eiffel Tower

The latest style design on the Champs--Elysees by Peugeot! Very cool I think.

We headed off to the major shopping centre to buy a winter coat for Seph and boots for the girls. In Lyon we managed to deck out Nev and he really looks French in his clothes! We couldn’t, however, discover why he beeped when he went into shops and Hermione kept setting it off too – once home we discovered that the shop assistant had only removed 1 tag from his coat and there were 2 more in his inside pockets! It was so embarrassing everywhere we went everyone stared. So today we took the receipt and went to a clothes shop and asked them politely to remove them – WHEW! Hermione however still beeped, further investigation proved it was something in her handbag! She then ate a Chuppa chup out of it and it stopped beeping!
Anyway we walked straight in and found the exact coat that Seph wanted- double Whew! I have never spent so much on clothes in their lives! Hermione got a wool coat in Lyon as did Nev. Anyway today we also went to a shoe megastore and the girls found their winter boots – I also read that buy one pair with a red dot and the second pair is €1! Bargain! So 6 pairs of shoes/boots (leather and good quality) later for €120. All set now I hope for this snow and cold that everyone keeps promising us!
I also searched on the net for Xmas holiday deals – it is going to be very hard at Xmas, don’t know what to do. At this stage it will be us sitting in this tiny apartment with not much and not much Xmas cheer! I looked at some ski packages as we will be covered in snow but they are ridiculously expensive! The search continues…..

I have run out of English books to read and this is annoying! I miss a good book and it makes it worse when Nev is getting stuck into the ones I have already read.

Point Zero - In front of Notre Dame where all measurements are taken from.
