We tried (and failed) to stay awake all day Saturday to get adjusted to the time zone. We went on a walk after dinner and tumbled across the rugby World Cup! We had no idea it was going on, except all the green jerseys and kilts we saw earlier in the day made sense. It was England vs Samoa when we walked by to be followed by Ireland vs Scotland. Lots of people were gathered outside the stadium to watch the match on the big screen. A man playing bagpipes showed up right as we were leaving. Today we walked through a large fancy garden next to the Louvre museum. We went to a restaurant that served food from Bretagne in northwest France. We had galettes, which are crepes made with buckwheat. Apples and butter are popular in that region so I had sparkling apple juice and everything had lots of butter and apple cider vinegar. In the evening we went to a park that has a nice view of the Eiffel Tower and the sunset and got pho for dinner. |
