In Paris...

It's been a long and continuous day since yesterday morning... Went with maaseru to Montreal, where we visited Lil, and had supper with her and her friend Lise at Le Chalet.

Then we went to the airport, met up with Tasia, and flew to Paris. The Air France seats were somewhat cramped and uncomfortable, and none of us slept much, though the teen sitting next to me put his blanket over his head and slept soundly.

We got off the plane about noon, and then spent two and a half hours in a hot, noisy room crowded with hundreds or thousands of people to get through customs. Ugh.

We took a taxi to our apartment, which turns out to be lovely. Here's the exterior, and the view. It's directly across from Notre-Dame Cathedral, and a short walk from the lovely place rented by rosiespark, where there are original watercolours of designs for theatrical costumes on the wall - Shakespeare, I think.

Then we met up with about a dozen of the Dunnett crowd for drinks and talk, in a little cafe arund the corner from our street. Will I get used to the cost of a Coca-Cola here?
