I arrived in Paris at 8:30am this morning, after only 3 hours of sleep, but full of excitement. While waiting for the apartment to be ready, I stopped in at a cafe in the 14th arrondissement and enjoyed the above petit déjeuner: pain au chocolat et un café. Ai goûté une très bonne.
There were many high points during the day, but rather than recount them all here, for
now I'll just share a recent highlight: watching the Eifel Tower sparkle as the lights go
crazy on the hour from the window of my apartment (at 9pm sharp...I'll soon be crashing
into bed!).
Stay tuned for more posts on food in Paris (with perhaps some sights mixed in) over the next 10 days of my stay in this amazing city. Tomorrow's agenda includes a guided tour of one of the fresh food markets. Let me know if you have any recommendations on things to eat or do while I'm here!
Hi Cole,
ReplyDeleteI left some recommendations on things to do in Paris on your Google+ account, but for a better account of some food highlights I thought it would be better to direct you to my wife's food blog at www.JenIsEating.com where she detailed where we visited last time. I think the posts begin around this one - http://jeniseating.blogspot.com/2009/10/paris-2009-we-have-arrived.html - we were there for just over a week.
Hope that helps & I look forward to hearing more about your adventures!
