Jason is currently passed out taking a nap after a late night urban adventure, so I am catching the blog up to date. It was a late morning and when we finally got going, we went to check out the elite shopping area along Saint-Honore. Cartier, Bvlgari, Jimmy Choo, Chanel, Dior, Gucci, and bunch of other stuff we can’t afford lined the street. Jason didn’t know what a lot of the names were, but I think he had a good time wandering an area with so much extravagant stuff.
Afterwards, we went to find a flea market called Saint Ouen but once there, a guy at an Ibis hotel told us the market is only open three days a week. So we went into a grocery store and got Orangina for me and gummy candies for Jason. By the way, a quick calculation and I estimate Jason has eaten about 5.5 pounds of gummy candies during the trip. He is able to eat a quarter pound of gummy raspberries and 1.5 liters of coke as a meal in about 5 minutes. Astonishing. I have my own problems as well. I am a huge fan of Orangina and France has it
everywhere, so every time we walk by a kiosk or market, I buy an Orangina. At the market near the flea market site, Jon found 4 Orangina flavors and Jason found his favorite berry gummy candies. It was life-changing for both of us.
Well I’m going to wake up Jason Bear so we can go find our final Paris meal. Tomorrow, we are on planes all day and will be home around 7 PM PST. I’ll attempt to do a quick update later this eve to wrap things up.
You guys would be my heroes if your brought me back some shoes!
