I was thinking today and one of my favorite memories of the trip was sitting in the back lawn of the gardens of the Musee de Rodin in the last hours of my time in paris. My sister and I chose to spend the 1 euro to get into the gardens rather than see the entire museum and I highly recommend it. The gardens are beautiful, and The Thinker is there so you get to see Auguste Rodin's most well known masterpiece all the while. At the very back of the gardens there is a lounge area with grass, a sandbox and wood lawn chairs. the chaining leaves of early fall and the fact that i could see the Hotel des Invalides behind the hedge and the Rodin to my right, the 20 minutes my sister and I spent simply relaxing is one of my "paris" images that comes to mind when I think back. It was then when I truely absorbed what I had done, and I have to say, that was really one of my happiest moments.
