Unfortunately, our scheduled picnic was rained out. The girls seemed grateful for the opportunity to take a long afternoon nap on a rainy day. That evening we departed for a river boat cruise on the Seine River. The sights on the river are even more beautiful at night including Notre Dame, the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre and the Orsay museum. On Wednesday we are scheduled to visit the Chapel of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal. St. Catherine Laboure relayed a request from the Blessed Virgin Mary to create the Miraculous Medal that is worn today by many Catholics and even Non-Catholics. After visiting the chapel we head to the Orsay museum home of the some of the most famous painting by impressionist painters such as Monet, Manet, Van Gogh, Cezanne and Degas. Tomorrow is Bastille Day and Rebecca Charur's birthday. Happy independence day France and very Happy Birthday Rebecca!
