ok, so that is the step count from my pedometer...from the moment i left home on friday til now.....that is well over the aha suggested 10,000 steps per day, and considering all i did on friday ws run for a plane, we have walked more than our share on this vacation......walked to st sulpice to light a candle and to see the rose line....then mero to abbesses...where i was surpised to find tht they have tiled over the paintings on the steps up.....and put in assorted photographic murals at intervals.......i really enjoyed the handpainted murals.....ah well.....sace coeur was crowded and we had to jockey for a place to light a candle....and so we metored to les hlles, and to st eustache to light yet another candle......and then on to the stravinsky fountain....and lunch at the cafeteria just beyond the beaubourg....the same one we lunched at with stephan's group.....arrived in time to beat the lunch crowd....had a fabulous composed salad of white asparagus, olives, jambon, tomatoes, and frisee lettuces.....with a cheese plate for my dessert and a passable cote du rhone......on to place des vodges.....and then a cafe stop in the sunshine, where cayle had an incredible chocolate cake with chocolate fudge inside and with creme anglaise on top and choclate swirlss......i made do with a crisp sancerre.........and then on to isle st louis where we shopped a bit before my daughter had an ice cream cone at berthilon......and more shopping down the seine.......canot wait to come home, if for no other reason that to rest.....i have just now checked the basketball score....ironic that my alma mater could lose to florida in national finals in 2 sports in the same year......i will live through this......hve just enough time to take a short nap before we start to think about where to eat our last meal in paris......my traveling companion is already thinking about where i should take her next year.....and that must be a good thing.....
