l'Aquarium.
L'Aquarium Tropical de la Porte Dorée is a lovely surprise in Paris. I was surprised to learn that Paris even had an aquarium, given that it is by no means a watery city, apart from the Seine (in which very few fish actually swim, I imagine). When we learned that it existed, we decided to take Mlle. Marguerite there for her day off of school with us. We all gawked at the tanks and tanks of fish, fauna and flora (80 in total).
293, avenue Daumesnil 75012 Paris | M: Porte Dorée
My parents & Marguerite.
We ran all over Paris and kept Marguerite out of Maternelle for the day. I think she was delighted about the break from school and we had a little singing/humming magpie flitting about with us.
She made a splash at the musée de l'Orangerie and got yelled at for zooming her police car on the metal railing bordering Monet's great works all over the museum. As you can see, she was contrite.
