Paris IV

2nd December
It was another super gloomy day in Paris and it was also my last day. First stop was the Louvre and there were quite a few people at the museum compared to my previous visit.

Museums make me really tired for some reason. I also brought my film SLR and my BW film with me. Kind of worried about all the x-ray scanners that I have gone through/ still need to go through. Hoping for the best. The back of the camera seems to pop out randomly and I forgot to bring tape and ended up using bandaids to secure the backing. Awkward.

A. wanted to eat at Ladurée so we visited for dessert. I don't have much of a sweet tooth and had also never tried anything from them before. I settled on hot chocolate (what is a visit to Paris without hot chocolate) and a lemon tart to counter the chocolate sweetness.

Not the best to be honest.

Overall Thoughts
I walked away from Paris with a more positive view than after my previous visit. I walked a lot around Paris, in the touristry areas and also the less touristy areas inadvertently since I got a little lost (nothing like Rome. I don't think anything will beat my experience in Rome).

Would I re-visit?
Not anytime soon. Unlike a lot of people it seem, I don't love the city (though I did enjoy it) and have had my fill for the time being.
