Today I walked 16.75 km around Versailles, with occasional stops to read bits of THE SITCOM STAR. It‘s cute, and I continue to loooooove how Jackie Lau doesn‘t Americanize her work in the slightest. Y‘all will appreciate that my tolerance for Americanization is currently at an all-time low, which is saying something.
My sandwich was great, too. Honestly, the bread from my cheap grocery store is better, but the filling was SO TASTY.
tpixie Looks delicious! Great you are taking the time to sit and relax and absorb! I just got off the phone talking to my son how I‘d love to go to Paris for a month so I would have time to see the things I still want to see there but also time just to sit and relax and absorb the vibe. He‘s trying to learn Spanish, and trying to figure out a way to be able to spend more time in Latin America learning the language and dancing. 17h
xicanti @tpixie you should TOTALLY do a month here! There‘s so much to absorb even when you‘re not actively doing stuff. I see people reading (and smoking, and chatting with their friends) every time I pass through the Tuileries—though, to be honest, I still haven‘t had a really long public sit-and-read myself. I‘ve kinda destroyed my feet over the last three days, though, so it‘s probably coming. 16h
tpixie @xicanti those uneven sidewalks and streets are very hard to walk on!!! 13h
xicanti @tpixie I have flexible-soled shoes that were specially designed for long walks, but clearly the designers didn‘t factor European cobbles and rocky paths into things. Sigh. 5h
