Up around corner , fresh baget , two hot croissants , back for breakfast .
Just near apartment , small square , small shops , fruit , cheese , meat , patisserie , coffee shop . And a different market each day . How convenient ,purchased a couple of nice tarts for when we get home after all our walking . The partisery type , not red light district type , don't even know where that is .
Found laundry mat near by for HS , now i have done it , could work out machines but not detergent , nice British couple gave us some detergent for later . Bit more money for drink .
We decided probably safe to leave apartment now , a story for another day . Google maps , that's Jan's name for me found famous bookshop , Shakespeare and co ,
HS happy me happy . Another sight crossed off .
Notre Dame metro , eventually found correct platform , takes a little time to work out , then off to Hotel Des Invalides , once again you want history , look up google or shop at Shakespeare and Co .
I will say that Napoleans tomb is there , such a big cask for such a little guy , must have put his ego in there with him . Also lots and lots of historic Armory .

Off to Musee d'Orsay , I'm hungry , funny place to be going for food , just wait .
Magnificent building , the art work pretty good too .


Actually we went straight to the cafe , then looked around , HS idea , I think not , but she didn't object . The place for and old railway station, is very impressive , there's hope for Flinders st station if only some one would look at restoration not comercialization . Did you like that ,
Sat on bank on fabulous seating looking at Rhine , another idea that could be pinched . Cant help getting on my soap box every now and then .Caught metro home , stopped to look at the fountain of St Michel .
Back at apartment , decided to stay in , HS ,finger now off the camera , whipped up some cheese , tomato , bagettes , and the tarts for the two of us . You and me can we be partners , you and me can we be friends , sorry getting carried away , That's all folks .
