day 12: ka.'s spot

Posted by ka. Fri, 06 Oct 2006 15:48:00 GMT

Chilled from our boat ride, I found a café as soon as I hit the streets - Jill would have stopped for un thé with me, but she was off to Notre Dame link
gotta get going while the going’s good

The Latin Quarter. Haven’t been here in the daytime yet - Jill tells me the Sorbonne is right behind La Musée de Moyen Âge. ahh Sorbonne sighs softly

I am sorely tempted to go and see the tapestries, but I can’t bring myself to go in - Jill had resisted the urge when she was here a week ago - had saved it for us to do together - and so will I when we return again to Paris

Came across the most beautiful botanical garden within the medieval enclosure took lots of pics for Jill

and then: found the Brasserie Balzar Sat in the front window, facing Musée de Cluny, with the Sorbonne at my right elbow - shiver

Brasserie Balzar

Thank you mom.

Jill and I took a cruise along the Seine today -> she was feeling better, and my mother kept hinting at how much we would enjoy it.

Had no idea how lovely it would be forget what you may be thinking: not trite at all

day 11: Picasso madness

Once we had a name for Jill’s woes, I felt so so much better! We hopped onto the métro together, but I kept going… on to the Musée Pablo Picasso.

insane giggle

We went to see a doctor in the Champs-Elysées because poor Jill started feeling yucky again. perfect doctor for my mom when she moves here - very nice doctor in a very elegant office! link

My morning was spent at Sainte-Chappelle.

don’t know yet how I’m going to put this chapel into words
