Day four in Paris.
To start the day my family and I had croissants. Then me and my friends went to the Louvre to look at artwork. We were there for about 3 hours. We looked at about 50 statues and paintings. One statue in particular was Nike, the goddess of victory. She had no head arms or legs, but she did have wings. She looked like an angel with wings. She was kind of grayish in color and she is about 3 by 4 meters in width and height. One of the paintings I saw was massive. It's about the size of a room in height and width. The story behind this painting is that Napoleon stole many painting from Italy during his many wars with them. When he and Italy were at peace and they had a treaty that said Napoleon had to give some of the many paintings back to Italy. But, when they came across the enormous painting "-------" It was so huge that when it came to returning that painting Italy said forget it. It's to big to fit into our ship and so it's still here in Paris.
Then we went to the Tuillerie gardens were we had lunch and played in the gardens. We went back home and said good bye to our friends Josh and Chloe because they were leaving Paris. It was nice having them here.
