Saturday & Sunday - RTL TV (NOT), skulls, walking and walking..

Last Thursday night we received an email from the school about a filmshoot of a cooking program of RTL television. This Dutch team was expected early Saturday morning and I agreed to help out. To cut a long story short: They cancelled. I received a call from the school at 23.15 - a bit late, but on the other hand, we could have a few more beers now!


Eiffel Tower by night. Not bad !


Henk at the main entrance at the Louvre.

Went out for dinner in St.Germain, and had a few beers and desert later in another place nearby my apartment.

The whole Saturday we walked around the city. Sometimes a bit with the metro, but it was mainly waking; Breakfast St.Germain, walked to Louvre via Cite, Place Vendome (Ritz),Concorde, Champs E, Arc de T., and also part of the Marais, with centre Pompidoe, les Halles.

Bit tired after all this....






Sunday: Metro to Montparnasse for a good breakfast in a cafe opposite the 'catacombes'

of ze city. So after a few eggs, a croissant and a coffee we went to see skulls and millions of bones

stacked together in the catacombes of ze city. Interesting. After that we took the metro to Bastille, the Sunday market, un petit bierre and then to Madeleine. Unfortunately, all the posh shops were closed.... Metro back to Dupleix and then a few petit bierres.

Tonight we wil be going to St.Germain again for dinner.

I have to get up early tomorrow morning because I am one of the assistents this week to get all the ingredients for our group up from the prep kitchen to the classroom.
We start with a nice freshly killed rabbit on Monday morning at 8.30.... Yippppeeee !
