This winter has been freezing and unusually snowy in Paris. However, the last couple of days have been bright and sunny though chilly with some drizzle now and then.
Today, I took a pleasant short stroll to the Eiffel tower by my lonesome self. Stef has gone to Amsterdam for the weekend. I was thrilled to try out my new Lumix GF1 camera I bought two days ago. I absolutely think this is a superb camera to have....sure beats carrying my heavy SLR D700 around the streets of Paris! It came with a 20mm lens fixed lens (without a zoom), nice but not quite enough to meet most of my needs. The good news is it is an interchangeable lens digital camera so there are a few choices of lenses for the body. I will definitely get a zoom lens next week.
Basking at Eiffel tower
Left bank of Paris, close to the Eiffel park is the renowned Rue Cler Market
This is where I get my seafood.
Davoli - La Maison du Jambo
Davoli never disappoints me when I am in need of a take away meal.
This Italian delicatessen sells homemade specialties ranging from meat to pastas, roasted vegetables, cheeses, desserts and the best Choucroute in Paris. Chroucroute is the pickled cabbage found in Alsatian cuisine very similar to German sauerkraut.
Indisputably one of the best delicatessens on Rue Cler and in the quarter. Be prepared to line up!
Breakfast is a must, skipping lunch may be an option but never my fruits!
Espoir vous avez un week-end d'amusement aussi
Wala, Hope you have a fun weekend!
