Monday - Well, here in Paris we are having cool temps and rain. Edward is still trying to get rid of the cold and cough but is not making much progress. We have decided to stay in and see if we can get him to feeling better. We ventured out late in the afternoon when we got a window of sunshine and found a restaurant for dinner.
Edward next to the nice painting of Italian cafes.
We had a small pitcher of wine (about 12 oz.) which was about 4 small glasses of wine and that was only about half filled. The wine glasses are much smaller than we have at our house.
Elaine with the electronic language translator and having a fabulous dessert in a goblet filled with cherries, a scoop of chocolate, a scoop of vanilla ice cream and then tons of delicious chantilly (that’s whipped cream, sugar and vanilla) mmmmm!!! No Cool Whip here.
After that, we had a cup of espresso – note the coin and the cup. I don’t think there could have been more than 2 teaspoons of espresso in the cup!
We called it a day and went back to the apartment.
Tuesday – same as the day before. We stayed in the apartment most of the day. I watch some of Wimbledon on the TV and Edward read on his Kindle. We are still trying to get enough energy to get out and do some more sites but we do want to be feeling better when we go to Germany on Friday to visit Sven’s Family for a few days.
We decide to go to dinner at an Indian Restaurant we passed by walking around the neighborhood. We wanted something different and I thought something spicy would be good for the head congestion. The food was good.
We called it a day (again before the sun goes down). I think it has been light almost every night when we go to bed unless it was raining and very overcast. The sun does not set until 9:58 p.m, so it is still somewhat light until about midnight then begins again about 3:07 a.m. and sunrise is 4:49 a.m. It makes it nice to be able to go places and not be concerned about it being dark when we come home.
