another quick post due to exhorbitant internet prices

1st full day in Paris. Began at the Musee Rodin, had the best bread in the world, Pain Poilane, for the first and certainly not last time. Ate stinky cheese and cherries in a park, wandered along the Seine to Notre Dame, and to the entrance of the Louvre, where I realized I couldn't enter with my groceries and left for a nap. Wandered the cafe scene at dusk. Watching the Parisians eat, and, drink, and talk, and smoke, (often simultaneously), is inspiring. Dining here is such a skill. Tomorrow I might attempt my first restaurant meal instead of the street food/grocery store thing all day. Bed early, museum blitz tomorrow.
