Wow

I understand why people fall in love with Paris.  There’s no end of things to do (or do more than once) or see.  Even just people watching is fun.

So yesterday we did our walk of “old Paris” – from Notre Dame, through the Latin Quarter, the Palis of Justice etc.  We took a Seine cruise, walked the left bank up to the Orsay, saw the impressionists and post-impressionist works at the Orsay, walked back through the Latin Quarter, got drawn into a touristy dinner place (it was ok but not great) and went and people watched in the Quarter and then on the left bank.

Today’s plans changed slightly – we’re heading up to the Marais in a few minutes and we’re lunching at John Z’s recommended L’As du Falafel.  This evening we’re going to the Eiffel tower so we can see it in dusk and twilight.  Our plan at the moment is to picnic along the left bank tonight (Friday night will be a real circus – in a fun way). 

Lot’s to do.
