Tuesday was an incredible productive day. Though you should not use productive when on Holiday, but it was. Got the laundry done - always a chore, as who wants to do it anyway especially when you're in Paris. Oh Well. Wanted to 'check off' a few more things in Paris. Rodin Museum - Glad I went. Tower in Montparnasse for a view of the city - okay, a little hazy, but okay. I had decided to go to the Eiffel Tower for sunset and night shooting, but it was only about 5PM, so I get out the old Rick Steves' Pari book on the iPad and look to see what else may be around and of interest. Rue Cler is a small little walk street in the 7th Arr that is just a stone's throw from the Eiffel and I was getting a bit peckish, so off I stroll. Walking again! Sort of a Brentwood neighborhood, with prices to match, but very tree lined and busy with peds. Got a Capresse Salad with the best tomatoes and cheese I have had yet. The bread was just a baguette, but what a flavor and just perfect crust. It is called the 'Corner Cafe' on Rue Cler. Just spent about two hours having a beer, salad and of course - cafe gourmand.
Wondered over to the Eiffel and did some more people watching as the sun was slowly setting. See what you think:
And here's a little 10 sec treat of sunset itself.
Not bad except for the idiot who stood in front of the camera.
I'll try to blog tomorrow, but I'm traveling for the next three days. First Lyon, then Turin Italy and then on to Varenna to stay for three days on Lake Como.
