Ok, I'm writing from the nice apple thing from my flatmate.
Don't think I can write too long, so this just as an enter.
Will elaborate either tomorrow or when I come back.
With photo's I hope.
As for the food, I had a salad.
Cooked rice(approx 40 gr), green salad, anjovies with capers, olives, arthichokes.
And for dinner had k
And that's where I have stopped with writing that night, lol.
Is it necessary to say that without my written diary I would have no idea what I've eaten? :D
Ok, here comes the rest.
So, I woke up at 8 o'clock.
Ah, come on I am an early riser. Then I prepared my lunch and my breakfast.
Breakfast:
Buckwheat porridge with an orange (everything but peel)
Lunch:
mixed green salad with cooked rice (approx 40gr dry when dry), rolled anchovies with capers, olives and artichokes.
Dinner:
Poached fish with salad and potatoes, but will write more about it.
So, around 11 o'clock I finally left the house. I simply wanted to walk a bit, to see, meet and greet the neighbourhood, and since I was out, i also wanted to buy the metro ticket.
I did, a weekly pass. The only problem was that the pass was valid from the Monday, not Sunday.
And then I walked.
Passed by the Opera house.
Can you imagine???
They have many great men's busts there, Mozart's is above the entrance, but no Johan Sebastian Bach!!!
That really surprised me. Ok, I am not objective, either, as I really think he was a musical genius, but still...
Such a complicated, delicate music, so condensed, looking so simple, but being so difficult. It almost sounds like mathematics, :D
So, I took the opportunity to visit the Opera.
's toilets.
:D
No, I haven't been inside. I was supposed to go and I had the very best intension,... but I simply didn't feel like being inside with so many people in such a closed, not that well lit place.
So, I sat on the stairs and enjoyed the view.
And then just took off through the streets.
And came to the Tuileries garden. That's the garden in front of the Louvre.
There was a summer amusement park there.
And I had decided to eat my lunch there.
I simply sat, ate and enjoyed the view.
There was a group of 5 young Asian people. They have enjoyed their lunch as well. Only afterwards they were so tired and had fallen asleep.
They looked so sweet.
And I continued my walk.
For the past 4 year (I believe it is 4), there is a summer beach in Paris, i.e. the beach is created along the Seine bank. So, I had decided to walk there and just enjoy the view and smells and people and sights.
It was very interesting. People actually went there to sit on the benches/tables and talk and gossip.
There was even a library.
Well, moi, in my broken French, I have borrowed 3 BD (comic books) and read them. Well, kind of read them. But you do need an ID to do that. :)
And then in the evening, all tired and stinky and sweaty I came to my little street. I've heard the music from the beginning of the street. I even thought, wow, Sunday and they're having a party...
Well, the party was in my apartment.
A nice little Canadian brat has decided to invite all her friends and celebrate.
Which I have nothing against, but, man... the only thing I wanted to do was take a long shower.
Instead, I had a good time. I observed those people (they all spoke French).
They're all her colleagues and friends working for some kind of bank (beat me what is the name of the bank).
Then spoke a bit with one of them. That guy, Edward, he was in the sales. He said he was to leave in two weeks and go somewhere south France and start working for Phillips.
Wow, I thought... Here is a Dutch connection.
Anyway, it was really nice and the average age there was 23 years.
Little kids, lol!
And then around midnight I simply had no power or will, So I took my shower (parading in my little pj) and went to bed.
