Last day in Paris...again



I woke up bright and early this morning, had breakfast, packed the last of my things, and had goodbye hugs with my dormmates. I was off to the train station, and then to Lyon!
When I got to the station, the ticket agent only had room at 8:00 pm. Yikes! It was 9 in the morning, I had a lot of time to kill (and a lot of luggage to carry around). But, I got one more day to enjoy Paris...
  • I went to the jardin des Plantes again for a couple of hours. I had a little picnic of yogurt and fruit and hung out with the little brown birds who were having some sort of conference at my feet.
  • I had lunch on a patio near the Bastille (my first cafe meal in Paris actually)
  • I window shopped in some of the stores along the Rivoli near the Bastille.
It was a blessing in disguise, I had such a great day in Paris (plus I think I walked about 10k with a 30 pound backpack...I think I´m in shape enough to join the army now, lol)
