This will be two posts because we depart very early in the morning and I won’t have time to post before we leave. Dinner last night was at a charming place called Chez Fernand with a limited, but classic French dishes. Hubby had truffle ravioli as a starter and wild boar and I had baked camembert with honey and then beef burgundy. They’d had a run on chocolate cake and the apple tart and since I don’t like crème brule, we did the lemon sorbet for a shared dessert. Coffee of course and Calvados for Hubby and Cointreau for me. We didn’t sleep as late this morning and had breakfast at a different café, then found the De Lacroix Museum. It is quite small, but very nice with a lovely little restored garden. It is all here in the Latin Quarter.
We had discussed going to Montmarte and decided instead to wander around Ile St Louis and have a leisurely lunch of steak au poivre for me and mussels and frites for Hubby as well as shared a warm goat cheese on toast with salad. We returned to the room for a short bit and will head out in a few minutes to go to the Eiffel Tower to let Hubby get some photos and to go up to the second level and get some shots of the lights coming on. Okay, I will finish the trip and post some nice photos as soon as we get home.
