Very busy day. Summer weather, very sunny and hot.
Walked around the neighbourhood, one short block to Place des Vosges, etc. Then along the right bank of the Seine to Saint Gervais, near Hotel de Ville. Then Ile de la Cite and Notre Dame. Then to the left bank and St. Germain and the Album stores (Tintin), stopping off at Saint Severin. After to the Pantheon and the frescoes of Jeanne D'Arc. Next door to the Pantheon, Eglise St-Etienne-du-Mont. Then to my favourite park - Jardin du Luxembourg, very Summery, shorts and sunbathers. Watched people playing petanque, tennis and chess.
Finally in the evening Sainte Chapelle and a concert by Les Archets. 12 hours non-stop, not bad for the first day.
