Paris - Stupidity in the Louvre and the Best Value Meal in the World

Lydia bypassed the opportunity to see the Louvre again so that left me and Pooey to treat such revered works of art with our usual family brand of stupidity and imitation.
*Now where is the entrance...?*

Since we were in France, we decided it was best that Pooey finally meet our French relos, namely Alix. We met up at Place de la Concorde - Alix did the doublekiss that Pooey was soooooooo not expecting, hilarious! - and met up with Alix's friends for and then to Pont de l'Alma to meet up with a friend of friends. Shame on me, I can't remember any of their names but friend of friend looked a bit like Cillian Murphy or Gaspard Ulliel being tall, thin, darked haired with very pale eyes, and smoked like a chimney. I thought he was hot. Pooey found him scary. I chalk that up to him doing the doublekiss on her which she totally wasn't expecting either. Hehe.

We all went to a cafe which had the Best Value Meal Ever. I wish I wrote down which street it was but basically they were offering a baguette, a dessert, and a drink for only
....5 euros. That's about $AUD8. YOU CAN'T GET THAT KIND OF VALUE!!! I had chicken baguette, creme brulée and a fanta. Pooey had chicken baguette, tarte au citron and water. I can't remember what Alix ordered but he got a mille feuille. Num nums!!!

Afterwards, we went and blew a lot of money in the shops.
But that's for another time.
