We stomped around the neighborhood looking for a new hotel. Most of them were full, but we found one, and we liked it better than the first. Not so stylish, but the room (and especially the bathroom) was much bigger.
There's an old elevated train track that they have converted into artists' studios and shops. One under each arch.
And on top is a garden with a beautiful walking (and jogging) path. It goes on for about a mile.
Then we visited the Picasso Museum. Tucked away on a little street, hard to find. We had to ask for directions about 10 times. But worth the search. We had lunch on the cafe on the roof.
Then viewed the artwork. They don't have many of the major pieces, but they have lots of the studies that Picasso did before he started the big one.
In the evening we had dinner with John at an incredibly romantic bistro on a quiet square.
We don't look too happy, but we were.
I've only seen Paris from the inside of a choir-tour bus on a rainy day. Now I want to go wander. . . with good walking shoes. Glad you are having fun!
