Palais Garnier and Gallery Lafayette

All were very tired from yesterday and wake up really late. After a lot of discussions I decide we will start with Palais Garnier ( to compensate all the Palais we didn't saw in London ) and also looking at it as a small museum. We left at 13:15 the house (it is shown we are getting tired) and the children did not show too much resistance but a lot of impatience during the short visit. The interior is wonderful. We also learned that the place inspire the phantom of the opera play. The Opera roof decorated with Chagall paintings was a big surprise. The children thought it is childish and not beautiful at all. 

                                 

Since it was rainy outside and hot, we went to the galleries Lafayette close by. As we enter, Amir decided he is going to die if he doesn't eat so again we are in the most expensive and not tasty place to eat, but "ce la vie". We went first to the roof to see the view and then we found the restaurants and ate. 

                

Now, we were ready to do some shopping. Tamar is a real shopper and spotted the desired floor in a second. Yoram went with the children and I went to the women floors (3 of them). The galleries are in a very fancy building with a very elegant rotunda. There are shops from the most expensive ones - Gucci, Fendi, Ralph Lauren, etc to the simple ones like Zara and Desigual. Since we didn't hit the jackpot i bought something at Desigual, Tamar bought a pair of shorts and we finally left. 

Outside was still rainy, so we went to play a little bit to an apple store and then finally home.
