My Saturday was quite busy, and fun too, which is a bonus.
In the morning, I caught up with two friends from Brisbane who are currently gallivanting around Europe. They came bearing gifts, which was nice (and not dangerous because they aren't Greek). They gave me two packets of original TimTams!
After that rendez-vous, I went to the Musée du Luxembourg which currently has a Vlaminck exhibition. I didn't know much about Vlaminck beforehand, and definitely didn't realise that he lived around Chatou, Nanterre, etc.
I liked a lot of yer man's paintings, and the audio guide was sufficiently pompous enough to allow cynical comments, which was another definite bonus.
After the musée, we went to a crepe restaurant for late lunch/early dinner. The food was good, though we weren't really happy about the cat that was allowed to wander around the restaurant, including under the table and on the laps of various diners. I had une "Crèpe Italienne" which was a crepe with vanilla ice-cream, chocolate sauce, and a piece of tiramisu. After the restaurant, we ended up at an Irish pub where we spent a good couple of hours, before finally heading home.
I met them at the museum at 2pm and got home at about 12:30am.
