Hey, everyone! After my awesome continental breakfast (croissants, crepes, and coffee), Alexis, Heather, and I went over to this awesome flea market on the other side of town. They had tons of shops filled with, well, pretty much everything. It was awesome. Antiques, jewelry, maps, shoes, old electronics, old photos and postcards. Alexis was very excited about buying her sea urchin encased in plastic. We had an awesome time there, and then we took the metro back to our hotel. The French and British subway systems are very different. The French have been very quiet, and you also have to open the door manually to get out of the car. It's also much hotter, but there's still a lot of character there.
I then took a much needed nap, and a bunch of us went out in search of pizza. Unfortunately, we're not too familiar with the times food businesses are open around us, so we ended up walking around a long time before settling on some cute restaurant where we got to eat outside. I had some tomatoes and mozzarella (my fave), pasta, and a glass of wine (seriously, it was cheaper than the water). But yeah. It was cool. Tomorrow we're off to Versailles! Au revoir!
I could live off of this appetizer: tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, and olive oil infused with oregano, parsely and basil. Seriously sooooo good.
One of the many, many shops at the flea market.

Is this lamp not awesome?
