So, did the Champ-Elysee, after strolling Montaigne where the tres chic shop.
Headed toward the Arch de Triumph which was closed. Looked like they were already setting up for Bastille Day.
Then we headed over to the Eiffel Tower.
Did some record shopping at Virgin Megastore and then over in the Latin Quarter at Gibert Joseph. Picked up the new Coldplay (see Eiffel pic), Odessy and Oracle, and Tonight's The Night. A bottle of wine at a cafe near the fountain of St. Michel where this was the view.
Lots more strolling then ended up at the Pompidou Centre.
And of course, lots of time spent down here in the Metro.
Notes:
I'm not really a foodie and Europe and especially France is not a bargain so we eat with things we get at Supermarches. Spend the money on some nice street side drinks.
Obviously other tales to tell but no time.
Also, the 5 years of French in high school and college has come in
handy. Really fun to try and remember and practice my French, I do
pretty well with simple things and still have the enunciations down
well.
