The next day was our last full day in Paris and we began by recording the spiral staircase in the hotel and then the elevator before we went for a walk in the rain past the animal statues in the pet store part of Rue de Rivoli and then we passed up an opportunity to Eat Fresh at Subway and had coffee which excited Suzanne and made my finger stick on the camera key at the Cafe Comptoir before continuing on to the Pompidou Center

and on to the whimsical figures in the Stravinsky Plaza fountain

which used up one battery but there were pictures still to be taken on the new battery

and then we were on to the Hotel de Ville about which it was written and beyond the fountains you can focus in on the watch words of the revolution. Next we walked through the Jewish area of the Marais which didn't work well because the Kosher places were closed on Shabat so we missed the fallafel stand though the boulangerie and Florence Finkelstein were opened so that we could buy this latke and then walk past this store front with the artwork of Niger and after the Acmai de Chevaux we went to the metro at Hotel de Ville and rode on to Chatelet so that we could make our way through the rain to meet Arlene and Michael for lunch though they looked better once we dried off as did Suzanne and I as we studied the menu at Fish la Boissonerie with this friendly waitress who brought us our bread and wine and my salad and the other foods

before the waitress took this group picture before I recorded the art on their walls and we made our way to the metro for the journey to the cemetrie where I recorded the locations of the famous buried there. We began by exploring with no real agenda to understand the scope of the place which ws vast

until Arlene asked these people for one of their maps which was forthcoming and then we headed off and found the grave of Jim Morrison where crowds were and even in a different view we saw the crowds before we headed to a number of touching Holocaust memorials

and Spanish Civil War brigades with beautiful flowers as we passed through more Holocaust memorials

before we happened on the grave of Gertrude Stein and a memorial to those killed in a plane crash before we found our way to the grave of Oscar Wilde

and that of Georges Bizet

After a short rest, we headed to the Bistro Allard where these were the salads the breads some main courses Nancy and Bert our dinner companions the other main courses and our desserts
