Day Two: Got up a bit late but still before noon, so that's not bad! Woke Andrew, said, its 11am, he said "so much for breakfast!" I suggested pizza and wine in the Marais district.
So that's what we did. We got showered, made ourselves look fabulous (took all of five mins.) and walked towards the Marais. Crossed the Seine, passed Notre Dame (which has been cleaned on the front. It looks nice, but has lost the 'old' feel I think).
We sat down at Pizza San Antonio and immediately got a litre of house white. Pizzas arrived soon after and were consumed with gusto. Headed deep into the Marais, sat outside the Open Bar and waited for 'les beau mecs'. But after one glass of wine, there was zero 'bonbons des yeux' so we went to Cafe Okawa - a Quebec themed bar just down the road. Had a bottle of wine there, then met up with Andrew's friend Tim who'd just got back from New York.
We had several more drinks at Le Mixer, Tim left to sleep, and Andrew and I went for a bite to eat - had a lovely carbonnara with an egg on top. Yum!
It gets a bit fuzzy after that I must admit. I know that we ended up at Le Depot until about midnight / 1am, then went home to sleep and recharge for the following day.
