more pictures of France

We took almost no pictures in Paris, and did not visit a single art museum.

We did visit the infamous catacombs, an old quarry that became a communal grave during the 1800s. It reminded me of the basement at Toro...



















...only in the catacombs, you can actually stand up straight.

We ate a lot of cheese, organ meet, and had a 3-star Michelin dining experience...















...It was almost as good as the Nutella crepe we ate from the crepe cart at midnight by the Eiffel Tower.

I made the Mathematician visit a whole bunch of open air markets, because I am obsessed with them, even thought we saw pretty much the same thing every time, even at this one in Lyon...












...but he was a good sport about it.

This is Mougins, the most special town on the Cote d'Azur...

...it is where my friend Alexander's family lives. And it really does look like that.

This is the view from Chateau de Chevre D'Or, our hotel in Eze...

...this is where I want to be right now.

Bon soir, et bon weekend...
