Started today by heading up to the 3rd where I had seen a lot of tents being set up last night. Found a new high end coffee place called Kawa, that had very San Francisco tasting espresso. Turned out a huge Brocante, or garage sale type thing was going on, and it was quite massive. Walked around and ended up connecting with John R., neighbor from NH who lives in Paris. There were shopping the brocante. After lunch at the Marche des Enfants rouge headed back and then to planned meet up at Le Baron Rouge. No one turned up for that some headed back and the over to the 6th for dinner with friend Christian. Lovely snack of cheeses that I brought and then rabbit pate and salad, after which we headed out to the LVMH owned Cravan cocktail bar. One French 75 and that was it for the evening! 18,300 steps!
