We
checked into our hotel on the left
bank and metroed to the right bank-
presumably to a TI that turned out to be
another fake-out one. We picked up
some good Paul
sandwiches that we took to eat at the
Jardin de Tuleries.

We
then strolled to the Louvre, not to go
in but to admire from the outside.

Tower but didn’t want to wait in line to
get closer.

We
walked in our neighborhood a while
before finding a place to eat. I had duck,
Teresa lamb, both very good.

In
the morning we metroed to St. Michel.
We
then walked to Notre Dame, a
long
line so we walked around Ile de la Cite
before metroing to the Museum of
Jaquemart Andre, a museum we had
never been to before. It was a great
museum with art from the Renaissance
through Impressionists ( no photos
allowed of the Impressionists) in a
pleasant setting.

We

Boulevard, doing some shopping, some
church viewing and finally to the
LaFayette Gallery, a shopping mecca.
