I'm rocking the cough... Let me tell you no one wants to sit next the coughing lady on the subway. Besides the cough I'm feeling well (fingers crossed it stays that way) so maybe it's a airplane cough. We shall see...
First stop today was Poloâne a bakery not to far from my hotel where I had probably the best croissant of my life! Flaky, buttery, and oh so delicious!
I then made my way to Musée d'Orsay. Last time I was in Paris we were rushed out because of an alarm... Thinking I would be back, I left and today (4 years later, I'm back!) It was great to see more of the collection but sadly the museum is being renovated so I didn't get to see it all. so I'll be back... It was great to see my fav piece from the last time I was here Femme au boa noir by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. He's my new favourite... I love his work, its do dynamic.
After the Musée d'Orsay, I was off to the Musée Rodin and it was every bit as good as I remembered. I got some great photos and in had lunch in the gardens. A super fresh sandwich - mini baguette, tomatoes, cured ham, fresh mozzarella, and roquette (I think trip to Paris has a Roquette theme!)
En suite, I went out shopping... Highlights were some really neat grocery stores, cooking stores, H&M, C&M, and a crazy large wine store (where I spotted a €5,000 bottle of wine... It was awesome to just see them.)
I'm now off for a quick dinner of mussels and hopefully making to the Eiffel tower in time to see it light up.
Stay tuned... Next stop Greece!!
