Walking and Eating

That can pretty much summarize my past few days here: walking and eating. I went to unbelievable Indian food last night, pictures were not taken because the food was devoured too fast. 

Today was a great day! After 9:30 class (and two cafés aux laits), my friends and I went to get lunch. We had seen a place called "Bagels and Brownies" a while ago and decided to check it out, I mean what's not to love.

hungryyyy

Let me just say, it was unbelievable! As a true East Coaster I have high expectations for bagels. These obviously weren't as good as a New York bagel, but it really was delicious for a Parisian bagel. I got one with cream cheese, turkey, tomatoes. lettuce, and mustard. We of course couldn't have a bagel without sampling a brownie too. 

After our delicious lunch we decided to check out a cool exhibit in the Marias. It was called "Not for Sale", and it featured paintings donated by galleries that the owners would never sell. Mostly they wouldn't sell them because they had personal relationships with the artist. The art ranged from classic paintings to avant-garde sculpture, it was verrry cool. (too bad no photos were allowed).

We also meandered through the Place de Vosges, a beautiful park in the Marias district. Victor Hugo lived in a building overlooking the park, I can see why. I would love to have an apartment right by that park.

After the exhibit and our walk we needed to refuel, what better way to do so than to eat a crêpe! We shared a crêpe with raspberry jam (crêpe au framboise in case you were wondering). And ohhh mann was it goooood! 

A great Friday afternoon exploring and eating! I can't think of a better way to spend it!
