And here is the proof that we actually were in Paris... I love this picture.... Tobias being his cool self, just sitting there in the middle of Paris (The Champs Elysees, with the Arc de Triomphe in the background) like he owns it....Like I said, we had a good time there!
Note 1: As I was walking around Paris taking some pictures of Tobias I was thinking back to the first time I was there myself... That was when I was 20 years old or something. Tobias has already been there quite a few times...! It is nice to have friends there :-).
Note 2:I taught Tobias some french words on the way there. Stuff like Oui, Non, Merci, S'il vous Plait, Voiture, Lait, Verre, and probably some more. He did remember some of the a few days later, but what was astounding to me is that he was able to pronounce it very well! Another thing that amazed me is that language barriers do not seem to exists in the world of children. Valentine only speaks french (although she does understand some Dutch from her father and some English from her nanny), but both her and Tobias were just babbling along in, each in their own language, and they just seemed to understand each other. "Hey Valentine, can you please move that boat and bucket so I can jump." actually resulted in Valentine moving the boat and the bucket so Tobias could jump off the white stool in the pool (see one of my previous posts).... Interesting...!
