Sunny Paris

 It was nearly 70 degrees in Paris today (eat your heart out Chicago) so I spent a few leisurely hours in the Jardin du Luxembourg. Parisian parks on a warm, sunny day are great for people watching. The playground across the way was teeming with excited French children. You can't really make it out but there's a zipline on the far left. I tried to take a turn but the line was too long.
 A nice stroll through the cemetery just a few blocks from my apartment.
 A tiny and delicious quiche from the neighborhood boulangerie.
 Train tickets in Germany addressed to Frau Martha Clarke. Frau. Ha.
This is hard to make out but it's my favorite juxtaposition in my neighborhood-- a Boucherie (butchershop), right next door to a pet store.
