Salsa Lessons at El Barrio

Last Day in the city of lights

What a beautiful day. The sun was shining all day and everyone enjoyed their last day in Paris. Some students went to Notre Dame for Easter Mass and some went to the Louvre and the Musee d'Orsay. We then met up with the French kids at the Place de la Bastille for salsa lessons. They all had a terrific time. We enjoyed our last dinner by the Louvre and then had a boat tour on the Seine to see Paris at night. It was a perfect ending to an amazing trip. We are so proud of the kids. They all blossomed and came into their own. We are so lucky to have had such a wonderful group - well-behaved, curious, sweet and polite. We will board the bus tomorrow morning to go to CDG and take off at 12:10. We land at O'Hare at 2:40. Please pick up your children or have them car pool. We arrive at Terminal 5. We will have them call you when we land. Bonne nuit et a demain!!!!
