Its May Day, May 1. Most of the world celebrates it as a holiday. Carol ventures out on her own to return to Lafayette Galleries to shop. She finds it and all other shops closed. How un-American of the French.
Later in the day CJ wants fresh air. His motivating excuse: a picture of the Opera, also known as Palais Garnier or Opéra Garnier. He thought it would be a short three block walk. In order to get the photo he desired it was a long walk.
We decided to return to the hotel through the alleys and side streets. Along the way we stopped in the Siena Restaurant for a drink. Its comfortable atmosphere beckoned us to take a proper lunch.
Oh woe is us! There is no foie gras this evening and after CJ consumes the final few drops of the white porto bottle he's consumed over the last two evenings, they do not replace it.
