We got our Navigo one week metro pass so we figured we would save ourselves from too much walking today.  My calves are killing me!  We didn’t wake up until 9:30 and by the time we felt out of the hotel it was 11:00.  We planned to do some shopping and whatnot.  I’ve been wanting to try Angelina’s hot chocolate and I saw there was a location very close to the Bon Marche department store.  We ended up walking there, just to find out is was takeaway only. It was getting close to noon and we hadn’t eaten yet, so we moved along trying to find a place to eat.  We ended up eating at the Bon Marche.  By then it was lunchtime, so we had chicken ceasar salads.  We took the metro to The Rue Rivoli area.  We did some shopping and ended up at the big Angelina’s.  The hot chocolate was very rich and thicker than any I’ve had before.  Yummy!

We did a little more shopping and ended up at Norte Dame.  Jim claimed he had never been there before, though I assured him he had been twice.  He recognized the interior after he looked around a bit.
Once again we walked more than we had expected to.  By the end of the day we walked almost 9 miles according to my Fitbit.  We dropped our things at the hotel and went to dinner at Pasco.  It’s just down the street from our hotel.  It was very good.  We are calling it an early night as we have a walking tour tomorrow.  I hope my legs feel better!
