Last night in Paris

Today I has a really frustrating time, the door to our room locked and wouldnt let me in, I had been out for a walk to have chocolate and cousant, and came back to that, it took four people three hours to finally fix it.....Sacre blure!  Any way I enjoyed myself by just wnadering and went to see another art museum, one earnest delacrox, who liked to paint tigers, he was living out of Paris and was asked to paint the roof of sant germaine church, so found a small flat (their words) near by, the house was beautiful, very french with big windows, and the back door led to his studio, which was huge too. Any way after pursuing a tiger or two i went back to the hotel, and slept, which was just as well, as at 8 we left for the resturant where we were to meet carla carlo and franko, italian family who do business at nzll. The tom tom has been loaded with the european map, and was a little help, but we arrived on time, the resturant was fablouse, we were treated to a seafood meal to end all meals, franko speeks no english, but I had him won over in a short time, he kept calling me bella (beautiful) may be because he had a little drink or two. Our meal consisted of pate de foi gra, thought of Julia Child it is the most b eautiful thing I have ever eaten, it is silky and delicate, rich and just really sexy. OUr main was three huge platters of every sea food you could imagine, from oysters, to winkles, to crabs and shrimp, and cray fish, we were given impliments to eat with that you could see at the dentist, the sight of Jeeves trying to wrinkle out a winkle with his winkle picker was a sight to be seen, we got back about one oclock, although Paris was still buzzing, we slept...This morning we are packing, off to see Notre Dame, and then on the train to the UK.....our next post will be from there.   much love Hilda dn Burt
