Paris
Day 1: J’arrive*
So I managed to sleep pretty much the entire flight from San Francisco to Charlotte. I seriously don’t remember much time passing at all, honestly. It was a quick walk from concourse B to concourse D, and I got settled in for the 75 minute wait between planes. Once I was on the second flight, […]
Day 2: Visitors!!
So today I was joined by Michi and Amy. Some of you may remember Michi from Jesters, Un-Scripted or La Pastaia/Hedley Club. She is helping Amy out with her music tour of Europe, and our paths happen to cross for two days, so it was SUPER TOURIST DAY! We had an AMAZING lunch (Croque Madame […]
Day 3: COMBAT D’OREILLER!!! (PILLOW FIGHT!!!)
Our plans to visit the Water Gardens were thwarted by a horrible case of Sleeping In. As such, we decided to just wander for the day, and when Michi checked the internetz, she discovered that there would be a flashmob pillow fight in the courtyard in front of Sacré-Cœur in Monmartre. We totally couldn’t pass THAT […]
Day 4: Easter
Super relaxed day, today. Slept in (again) after yesterday’s festivities. When I finally got moving it was to spend most of the day working on BoxOffice stuff for Un-Scripted while Amy and Michelle packed to head for Nantes. Amy made a kickass lunch of ravioli, boiled eggs and salad, and I gnoshed on fresh bread […]
Day 5: Medieval Meanderings in the Marais
I didn’t realize it when I booked the apartment, but apparently le Marais (this neighborhood) is pretty much the Paris equivalent of The Castro. My street also happens to be the center of Paris’ Jewish district. So that means I’m totally surrounded by good food, good delis, good bars, good shopping, and good nightclubs. I’m […]
Day 6: Orange
Oh Tuesday. So full of potential thwarted by rain. But it’s okay. I made my way out of the house pretty early so that I could get a French sim card for my phone. I got to the Orange store closest to my place just before they opened at 10, so I took another lap […]
Day 7: Latin Quarter Literary Loop
The first thing I realized when I left the apartment today was that I may have left my sunglasses in my car. Must do more searching. But the first TRULY sunny day since my arrival found me wandering the Latin Quarter, following another Lonely Planet walking tour. There’s honestly not a WHOLE lot to say […]
Day 8: Oh no you di’int!
So I woke this morning to my body saying, “Um, yeah, about that ridiculously long walk you took yesterday? Screw you and your photo taking, dude, today we sit. Sit. Sit. Sit.” So it was a nice, long, slow morning. Did a little work first thing (I don’t know why some of my co-workers are […]
