Our first full day in Paris. Had breakfast at the appartment then to our new highway to the Seinne. There was a market on, so did the quick buy of essentials and drop those off, then out again to our destination, which was Sameritain, apparently a wonderful shopping centre. However it was closed due to renovations. Guy was very disappointed. It was fun walking along all the little and bigger streets, ; along the Seine We headed for Hotel de Ville which was also a big Myer/bunnings/ etc type everything store. We found the Le Crurset and a few other items. Then carrying the things back with us, we found a carry bag (also to be used for onboard the flight home), which came is handy at this time. We had more stops, for lunch at a creperie with about 50+ items on their menu all crepes! Hot chocolate at St Louis, Melissa, it still tastes amazing!
After dinner we walked up our streets again to check out the restaurants and dodge the intermittant rain. Such awesome vibes there. A little greek shop, constantly overflowing with customers outside. They must do an amazing wrap or something. We haven't been able to get close to it yet. From our street you cross a rue Claude Bernard then follow the road of the fountains, 3 in total on the way up. And such a lively scene. We love the area already.
