Our last day in Paris. Sigh.

We went to Cafe des Phares for our last morning cafe and tartine.

Went over to Judy and Bill's to pick them up for a morning at the Carnavalet-- the museum of the history of Paris. The museum is really great-- it has artifacts from stores and tradespeople, relics, painting, furniture, entire room tranplanted to the museum and a wonderful garden. We stayed several hours looking at everything. Bill stayed for a couple more hours after we left.

We went to lunch at the BHV cafeteria. Bazaar d'Hotel Ville is a department store, and they have a fantastic cafeteria where you can select from wonderful composed salads, cheeses, charcuterie and desserts. They also have a little self-serve wine section where you can fill a demi pichet with a red or rose. We grabbed trays and some salads and sat in the dining room with the Parisiens.

We shopped a little bit after lunch and then walked back up rue Saint Antoine, going through a demonstration in front of the Mairie. Scientists were demonstrating for more funding.

I finally had a Parisien nutella crepe. The crepe was great...the nutella was overkill, but it was good. The vendor asked if I wanted a Kilo or 2 of nutella.

Back to the hotel to pack and get ready for dinner tonight at Bofinger.

Tomorrow we catch an early shuttle to Charles de Gaulle for our flight from Paris to Dallas/Ft. Worth and from there back to Seattle. R will continue on to Spokane.
