So, I'm now back in Paris. It's my third time here, and while it certainly is a great city, I have never really felt the charm of it that other people do.
When I got in yesterday, Emily and I went walking around, stopping in a cafe. I had a salad which was absolutely perfect for the time. After walking around Montmarte for a while, ended up taking the metro to this movie poster store where Emily was thrilled to find a 'Fargo' poster. I headed home after this, to take a much needed nap. I've been feeling quite down lately, and on the verge of sickness, hopefully not bronchitis which I had earlier this year and took months to get rid of. At any rate, it was a good nap, and I'm taking care of myself now, hydrating with water, not drinking, and cutting other habits which are not conducive to healthy lungs.
Around 7:30 to 8 or so, Emily and I headed out to Montmarte again looking for a place to eat. Ended up settling on a lovely little cafe-restaurant, and had appetizers of escargot while Emily opted for the duck (standard operating procedure for Em) while I had a delicious steak. Apple tart and cheese afters followed suit. Delicious. Best part is, was on Mom. Thanks Mom!
Called it an early night last night and then woke up this morning to a chill morning. Got Emily off to the train station to head to the airport, which, I must say, was quite sad. While I had my doubts about traveling with Em, who is so different from me, she has been an amazing travel partner. Very chill and fun to hang out with. I'm definitely lucky to have a sister as cool as her. She's back to NYC to apartment hunt and whatnot, but I know she's looking forward to being in her own bed and with her friends.
I'm going to take the day fairly easy and try and rest up. Maybe walk around a bit tonight. Would love to hear from you all, mecheever@gmail.com . If you send me your address I'll send you a postcard.
Au revoir Paris, off to Marrakech tomorrow.
