quiet day

after a pretty killer day yesterday, we fortunately had nothing too much on the agenda today.

our first stop was lunch, and since our picasso run was in le marais, and since the falafel joints are in le marais... well then... one must venture off to the falafel joints while we're there, non?

so we tried out the 3rd falafel joint called chez marianne. and if you're going to go to any of the three we've blogged about so far, this would be the last on your list. i mean, it was good, and tasty, but it completely fell apart in our hands. 2 stars. recommend only if you have time and are curious, but if time is limited, definitely go to the other two and skip this one.


we then ventured off to the pablo picasso museum. it was cool seeing picasso's art evolve over time, as each one of the rooms was dedicated to a specific time-frame of picasso art. some of them were life-like, especially early in his careers (almost photographically accurate), while his later arts looked like he drew them after toking on an illegal substance. all-in-all, i'm glad we made the trip, but like grace posted on her blog, this location is definitely auditable for those who have limited time.


our last stop, as we were tired still from yesterday's marathon, was a patisserie called paul. seriously. just paul. and like any patisserie that can't be more creative than just a simple name as paul, it was mediocre. but here are pictures of some of the stuff we scarffed down.


so... after a long day, we were ->


and decided to call it a day. coming home to relax was nice, haven't just chilled out and done nothing in a while. i cooked up some eggs and rice for dinner, threw together a quick salad, tempted fate by pondering a gelateria downstairs, but laziness kicked in full drive, and it also got 'audited.' well, that's all of the food updates we have today, tomorrow is the notre-dame, and the paris sewer tour, so if my blog stinks tomorrow, it wasn't my fault! (har har har, not funny...)
