Wednesday November 2 - Paris

Had a very laid back day, giving in to the grayness of the city, walking around chilly Autumnal Paris.  We crossed over the Seine to the Left Bank and walked down toward the Sorbonne.  As we ambled around I thought I remembered that a old favorite eatery, Brasserie Balzar, was somewhere in the vicinity.  In my best (or worst) broken French I eventually obtained the address for the restaurant.  Ferris and I enjoyed a delightful lunch of French comfort food - soup a l'oignon et poulet roti avec pommes de terre.  The very best in Paris.

After lunch we meandered once again toward Boulevard Saint Germain and walked until our feet could no longer carry us.   Had drinks at the Hotel Montalembert on Rue du Bac before taxing over to Les Fables de la Fontaine for dinner.  This petite seafood restaurant (only 10 tables) came highly recommended by Elizabeth.  Absolutely worth a detour.
