Dinner was not until 10:15. A tad too late but miscommunication. We thought the reservations were for 915. Oh well.Ze Kitchen Gallerie is a tiny swank restaurant on the left bank. Not sure how ... | | | | | | Out we trucked out to the Hippidrome that is located at Bois de Boulogne . It is a race track. The park is huge with hookers and transvestites at every other tree. Actually we felt quite at home watching them through the bus windows.We took the metro to the bus. Quite the shlep. Once we got t... | | | | | | Josh woke up this morning and had a hard time opening one eyelid. Ugh.

I walked down to the local patisserie and got a brioche covered with tiny rocks of sugar. The croissants were so beautiful in the window that I had to take a picture. Came back upstairs and settled down with the Tribune and... | | | | | | I must be on the 2AM - 11PM schedule. It sucks. I'd rather be on the 1am - 10pm schedule.
