Sitting outside the flat - I heard amazing trumpet music coming from a distance. As a trumpet player I enjoyed every minute of it, also thinking Paris is so very interesting. All kinds of people, talent everywhere and so much to do.
Rain prevented us from doing much in the morning, well sprinkles, as did our lack of sleep so we decided we should just wake up when we wake.
1030a still sleeping.
The weather is crisp here today. Cloudy and grey.

We stopped at a street café just outside of Le Louvre for sorbet & crepes, walked and walked and headed back to our apt for a quiet evening.
We're off to the Cathedral Notre Dame de Paris tomorrow.

It's good to know where you're going and how to get there before you set out.
The metro here is a bit sketchy compared to London.
Many refugees looking for money and weird people talking to themselves. LOL
To each there own.
We are still enjoying everything PARIS has to offer.
