Our apartment was
built in the middle 1700s as part of the carriage house and stables of
a mansion and the building is listed
by the French Monuments Historiques. The entrance
to our
apartment was from a courtyard -- originally a stableyard -- that can
be seen in the larger version of the aerial photo above.
We took our main meal of the day at an excellent neighborhood
restaurant called Le Petit Marché. We returned there several times.
Breakfasts came from one of the three boulangeries that were within a
couple of blocks.
Day 2, Friday April 27, 2012
Still
jet-lagged, we slept until 11 o'clock
and didn't do a whole lot this day. Since the Carnavalet Museum of the
history of Paris was only a couple of blocks away we started out our
touristing by going there.
