France. Paris. The Beginning.

 Oh Quasi-- we're baaaaaaaaaack!!!
(some Notre Dame pics with quasi from 2002 below, inlcuding Ty-man...not even the earliest re-appearance of quasi.)

Day 1-- Blue skies, loads of walking around beautiful streets, les Tuileries, le Jardin du Luxembourg (a hop skip and a jump from le Requin's charming flat), and la Musée Marmottan Monet. Picnic dinner in les jardins. Followed by gelato.

Day 2, sur les Vélib' dans le Bois de Boulogne, seeking la Fondation Louis Vuitton.
We found it! 

C'etait an amazing building and quite the collection of modern art; loads to appreciate even for a novice like me. Snack Machine (le requiin) shows the lighter side of our time in this museum, below. Dinner at un brasserie. Followed by gelato.

 
Day 3, Hôtel de Ville was another worthy stop. Half of the beauty was in simply gaining
access which was a very tricky affair. Hats off to the shark for navigating an interesting multi layered reservation system which also seemed to include a bit of a personality test.  

A crepe avec Nutella s'il te plait. Mais c'est ma derniere. 
Nutella= palm oil= destroys the rain forest. Aurevoir, Nutella.
