Grand Tour, Day 14: Paris, Pompidou and Montmarte

Emilio writes:

Our first destination was the Centre Pompidou, which is a museum of modern art.
The most memorable work of art was The Fountain by Duchamps. It was the most memorable because it was actually a urinal, so that was funny.

This work of art was a projector projecting white light. My Dad was putting his hand out in front of the projector. Then a woman with a baby came, and she put her hand there, and they made a scene for the baby. In the picture above, my dad and I were putting our hands in front of the projector.

My dad took a picture of this because I said that I was going to do this when I got home. But I haven't. Yet.


Once we left the musuem, we went to the supermarket to get food for our picnic. At the picnic, I had a mango and passion fruit juice, strawberry banana juice, pita bread with hummus, orange, peach, cookies, chamellows, and two baguettes. It was awesome! I would eat one of the baguettes by myself if I was allowed to.

After our picnic, we went to Montmarte. Mom and Dad said the church on top of Montmarte was not worth standing in line to buy tickets, so instead we watched a guy doing mad skills with a soccer ball. He was amazing! At the very end he climbed on a lamp post with the ball on his head!

Once we left, we went back home, and I played Carioca with Gerardo and my mom, and I won. We played Desesperado three times, and I did not win any. Then we played Escoba de Quince, and I won.
