This is a hub by my little Princess. It is about her day trip to Paris on the coldest day of the year. She is 7 years old, but she wanted to write about her experience and share it with all of you. All the photos have been taken by her. All I have done is assembled the hub and corrected a few mistakes.

 

This is Paris seen by a 7 year old French girl.

Yesterday I woke up at 5:30 in the morning and took two trains to go to Paris. I liked the trains. In Paris I took other trains that I did not like because they were dirty.

I went to the Louvre Museum because I wanted to see the Mona Lisa. I bought a picture of her. There were lots of things with her photo, key rings, postcards and books. I saw pictures of Van Gogh and Archiboldo. It was very cold, there was snow and the fountains outside the Louvre were frozen.

After that I saw the church of Notre Dame but not the Eiffel tower.  I bought a new book. I took lots of photos of the church and the birds.  The poor birds were very cold; there were pigeons and other little birds.  My dad put some cake crumbles on his hand and the birds came to eat from his hand.

I saw a boat on the river and I took a photo.  There were lots of policemen.  I like adventure I am a big explorer and I loved my day in Paris.

Our train back was late and I went to eat in a bar with my dad.  I had crepes and a big cup of very hot chocolate.  The waiter in the bar looked like the cook in the film Ratatouille and I took a photo of him to show it to my little brother at home. 

 

That was my adventure in Paris.  I will never forget this day.

The boat, Saint Michel and some yummy food!

Little Princess! What a fantastic job you've done. I was almost 9 when I was lucky enough to visit Paris. We probably went to see all the same places. Thank you for giving me such great memories.

Little Princess, thank you so much for sharing your adventure to Paris with me way across the ocean in the United States of America.  I may never get to France so looking at all the pictures you took was really fun.  I especially love the boat on the river, the birdies eating the crumbles and I love that last picture of you looking soo hungry after a long day.  You really are a very cute little explorer and a very good writer and photographer too,  just like your Mom.  Thanks again!

I love Paris! And I really enjoyed those lovely photos. Little Princess could only be your daughter Princessa ;)

I went to Paris for the first time when I was about 9 years old and I don´t remember much from that first visit :( I whish I had some pictures like yours to remember those days. Fortunately I had the chance to go back several times and kept strong memories from the City of Light.

Thank you for reading us Cris. It is interesting to see how different we see a place at different ages. For my Little Princess the best part of her day was to see the Mona Lisa which she had been longing to see for a while. After that, the birds eating from her dad's hand were the best part of her day.

Princessa there is a popular saying traveling is part of education those days in my high school we normally go for escution. Your daughter has gained a lot from that. Hope in his 8th birth day she will be in NIGERIA AS MY GUEST Haaaaaaa. GREAT HUB KEEP it up WANNA JOIN YOUR FAN CLUB.

Rose: It was somehow strange that at 7, little princess' main reason to see Paris was to see the Mona Lisa and other painters that she had studied at shcool.

chike: I am sure that my children learn really a lot with our travelling. I try to do cultural tours with as much fun as possible. She might be only 8 now, but through her travels she knows all about Paris, Pompeii, Rome, Scotland and many other places that she can locate in a globe and tell you all about them!

I am sure she would love to visit Nigeria. She is always keen to visit new places.
