Good weather
Good food
Good company
This day just happened to include all three! After an awful night of sleep, I met up with Aubrey and we climbed the Arc de Triomph! I wasn't quite expecting how nice of a view it had plus it was free and we had gone early enough that we beat the crowds!
The stairs were a nice kick in the rear too. In the end, pleasantly surprised!
Then as we headed out to find Aubrey some lunch, we decided on Creperie Genia- the best crepe place in Paris! To my utter surprise and overjoyed excitement, across the street at Creperie Suzette, they have gluten free crepes!!!!!!!!!
My life has been made! Paris, je t'aime!!!
So ya, obviously I had a crepe and we dined in and finished off our day strolling along the Seine. We came across a big white tent in front of Notre Dame and guess what we found inside! Une Fête de pain!!! A bread party!! I'm such a foodie, I can't help it. Bread has always been my love and even though I can't eat it anymore, I'm still in love with it. This tent not only had fresh the freshest pastries and baguettes in the city, it had the most heavenly smell ever to exist on this planet.
I talked a bit in French to a cute old man making some fresh pain au chocolat and watched some pretzel making, some baguette baking, and we even took a selfie with a giant honkin' piece of pain. (It's pronounced 'Pa-n' not 'pay-n') :)
