This intersection of five streets has three corner cafes that always have patrons.  We have heard charming accordion music from our apartment for perhaps 90% of our days here in Paris.

Evan and I went out for a nice meal in Paris.  The restaurant only had one over worked server and for a while I thought all I was going to get for dinner was wine.

This Sunday farmer’s market has it all… fruit, flowers, cheese, meat, hot food, some clothing and jewelry.  It was great!

Sainte Chapelle is a dizzyingly tall, 13th century chapel with 1,100 bible scenes embedded in the enormously tall windows.

We finally made it to the Louvre Museum.  The Mona Lisa is by far the most popular exhibit.  Here, Evan is doing his best Mona.  Notice the intense crowd trying to smash up close to see her.  On the same wall you will find two bold signs warning of pickpocketing.

These are perhaps the most famous macarons in Paris and they are damn good!

Notre Dame is beautiful at night.  And the Seine.  And the city.

We finally prepared a real cooking meal at the apartment.  The kitchen is so tiny that while one person stands at the sink (you can barely see the rim in this picture) another person can squeeze in to the right with the cutting board turned sideways.  That is the extent to the kitchen.  I can’t imagine how you survive on a boat.

We met up with a large couch surfing group at a bar for trivia tonight, which turned out to be a total crowded disaster.  We salvaged the evening by walking blindly around town and stumbled across this beautiful building.  I love the curved outer wall.  Really, I’m just a sucker for curved walls.
