Day 3 - Backpacks and Boys

Our final day was a short one, so we stuck close to the hotel and walked over to the Bastille.

And came upon a market!  The colors and smells of the fresh produce were amazing.  There was a woman preparing the biggest batch of Paella I have ever seen.  Unfortunately we had just had breakfast and were stuffed, but sometime soon we'll be seeing her again.

Well, I was stuffed, but Laney, of course, found a bit more room to put another crepe.  Thankfully we found another stand at the small street market at the Viaduc des Arts.

After our walking tour it was time to pack up and make our way back to the station and, if you can imagine, Laney was hungry again.  So, it was one last jambon beurre for Laney before we got on the train.

It was a quiet ride back.

I think we were both worn out and, truth be told, we missed our boys. Given this was a reconissance of sorts we'll be back with backpacks and boys.
