Thursday's Walk through Paris

Yesterday's journey into Paris began with lunch at an Italian restaurant where one of the guys Parker led to the Lord works.  The restaurant is owned by a couple from Italy, so we got genuine Italian pizza.  An entire pizza per person to be exact.  I wasn't expecting that, but it was delicious.

 I didn't manage to eat the entire pizza, but I gave it a valiant effort.  We then went out for coffee and hot chocolate with Parker's friend from the restaurant.  It was encouraging to hear his questions about how to share the gospel.  It's very exciting to see someone learning about the Christian faith for the first time.

Parker took us walking down the Rue Mouffetard in a light Paris rain.  We saw what looked like a French movie being filmed and briefly walked into the mosque.

We walked through the Garden of Plants, a beautiful place inside the city.

We left Parker at this point and walked back to the most well-known of the Paris landmarks to take some pictures for a timelapse video.  Reading out loud to KJ in front of the Eiffel Tower was so nice.  I'd like doing that everyday.

Afterwards we came back to Parker's where he kindly made us dinner, and that was our night.
