After a casual day lounging around the apartment just chilling out, having a few drinks, and something to eat, we decided to go and do a bit of window shopping and have a good look around the area we have set ourselves up in.

| Eglise Sant Nizier Just Around The Corner From Us |
Nearly all of the buildings around us are 5-6 storeys high and made of a light stone, this gives a very nice feel to the place when the sun comes out as the light seems to reflect everywhere and just makes you feel good.

We are right in amongst all of the shops and restaurants so did not have to walk far to find them. The whole idea of today was to have a look at Winter clothes....it has to start getting too cold for us soon!
Walking around we cecame very amused at the way many of the French park.....if there is a gap, they will park in it. It is common to see a row of cars with bumpers all touching...it beats me how they get the cars in these spaces, never mind getting them out.

| Hey, It Fits!!!!! |
Very soon we were in the main shopping area, the closed off road of the Rue de la Republique...this place is packed with shops of every description. It started to feel like Lesley was going through every shop door "just to have a quick look"......I could feel myself getting older by the minutes........I just love shopping.

Is it just me, or is walking around the shops more exhausting than running a marathon?
