Guignol

So Wednesday was Moving Day for the family, so I was with Luce allllll day. I had seen a while ago that they have puppet shows in the Jardin du Lexembourg. SO off we went... it was actually not a puppet show, per se- it was a marionette show i.e. a guignol show! I couldn't actually remember the significance of the guignol but we definitely talked about it in french class in high school (and also my french class here, but it was all in FRENCH so I missed a good bit of the point). But when I ran the idea by Corinne, she was like, "I don't really like them but they're from Lyon and you really should see one because it's so French." But it ended up being kinda lame- mostly because I hate puppets. The humor was a lot of pushing each other/ hitting each other. This was a really long post for a puppet show... but it wasn't just any puppet show. It was the most FRENCH.

Also, RIGHT as I took a picture, Luce pulled up her skirt. Hahahah so funny. She was in such a bad mood but even SHE started laughing.

The second is a slightly more ladylike one... Luce was super grouchy (the nap thing) so I had to take this picture on the DL or else she'd yell, but she kept doing this cute thing where she'd pull her skirt up high and call it a dress. Also, I put on a video of her from later (bus on the way home from dance) but she was singing in french- ADORABLE.
