Living (temporarily) on Ile Saint-Louis..

...And loving it. Today:

• visited Anne de Montmorency's lovely palace at Ecouen
  
• Heavy traffic and construction on the way back, so I slept on the bus
  
• Walked on the streets Lymond followed when he samed Mme le Marechale from the soldiers in Checkmate
  
• Saw the site of the Hotel d'Hercule
  
• visited the Saint-Chapelle with rosiespark and then visited her for a cup of coffee at her wonderful appartement on Ile de la Cite
  
• Has a rather sumptuous duck dinner at L'Escramouche with a bunch of Dunnetophiles: two Germans, a Scot, two Brits, three Americans (one a New Yorker), one Australian, and two Canadians from Toronto.
  
• Had a lovely walk back to Ile Saint-Louis with Heike, Tom, Karen and Ann.

Hey, we've been trying to call you but there's no answer there.
Hope to hear/email from you soon.

I've been busy with the Dunnett gathering - will phone you tomorrow! I am amazed by the warm weather. There are people swimming in the Seine outside our windows. In October! I had no idea.
