This weekend was fun, although after Friday night not much was done. Saturday it was snowing like crazy, but we trekked across Paris to grab lunch at an American-style diner and all got delicious American breakfasts at around 13h30. It was really, really yummy but I don't think I'm going to go back. I'm only going to be here once, I should really take advantage of it and save my bacon and eggs (and two chocolate chip pancakes with maple syrup and lots of butter), since I can have that any time I'd like in the States.
Mmmm...delicious.
Mmmm...delicious.
Gerald and I then went to Shakespeare & Co, a really cool bookstore in the 1ere arrondissement, right across from Notre Dame, where they sell used and new English books. I know, I know, I shouldn't be buying books in English, but the store is just so amazing and cozy that I had to. But I did compromise, and bought two French authors: Dumas and Stendhal. I'm a big fan of both books so far.
We then found a little cafe, bought some hot chocolate and sat out the snow storm for a few hours, reading our new books. It was a very lazy afternoon, but it felt very French, so ca va.
Sunday nothing of great excitement happened, but I got a lot of work done, which was excellent. Getting ready for midterms this week! Nice!
