We got to experience Springtime in Paris. We had to check out the recent damage to Notre Dame (since our Fall trip). We also couldn't believe how much more crowded it was now - I don't even want to imagine the summer months! We wandered some familiar streets, but mostly tried to find new ones to explore. We returned for "Pita Grec" and I enjoyed a beer Seine-side as planned. We pre-purchased tickets to L'Atelier des Lumieres and the "AMIEX" (Art Music Immersion Experience) of Van Gogh. Although normally not a very "artsy" guy, I thoroughly enjoyed the exposition. https://www.atelier-lumieres.com/ There was also an exhibition called "Japanese Dream". Having thoroughly planned our Paris sightseeing when we were here just last Fall, this time was less structured and meant to be less stressful. When we randomly stumbled upon outdoor markets and cheap delicious apricots, I was happy. This feeling was fleeting, however, as I was constantly wondering which way to turn and what we were missing. Although research and planning can be a lot of work, this was proof that it is still the best option for a compulsive sightseer like me.
