Monday


After arriving in Paris at 9:30 am, we napped until 3 and then headed out to the Natural History Museum and the Jardin des Plants. I'm not sure what the French signs all said, but the displays were so attractively lit and the building so amazing that I enjoyed it anyway. In the garden there was a menagerie...so, first you see the dead ones, then the live ones.

What really stands out from this day is the crème brûlée we had that night. I don't know how this happened, but a very touristy place near Montmartre had very good food. The waiter made fun of us in as friendly a manner as one can make fun of tourists, going so far as to introduce us by name to his mouse when Gypsy pointed the little guy out as he scurried around our feet.
