This first picture is of the lovely parisian staircase in my building. The staircase which alas ends on the 4th floor so i have to take the small rattly elevator the the 5th.

The 2nd photo is of a street in the Bastille area where I had lunch today. I just love all the narrow little streets. The Bastille area is one of the areas i'm thinking of living in, so it was fun to walk around and pick out buildings i liked and think that could be my new home! The relocation people BETTER do a good job of finding potential apartments. The relo people here in Paris are different people from those flakey idiots based in London, so there might be hope.
I came across an awesome fruits and vegetables market in the area, I wasn't going to buy anything but then I was finally tempted by some clementines. 1 kilo for 1 euro! mmmm.
I was in the mood for a crepe at lunch, not on of those nutella crepes from a stand (not that they aren't delicious) but a creperie, a resturants specializing in crepes. I couldn't find one and ended up eating at a thai restuarant. Hey i love thai, and can't eat escargot, etc. every day. After i ate, guess what kind of place i discovered was right next door. A creperie. :) Oh well, the Thai was delicious, and now i know where to go for crepes next time i'm in the area.

Mon and Tues next week are apartment hunting days! I can't wait!!
