Last day in Paris

After the chilly winds have arrived, I woke up with a sore throat and the start of a cold. As it is our last full day in a Paris we set out on a chilly morning without a coherent plan. Gail was keen to see the Shakespeare and Co book store, so we could at least be indoors. Fascinating place it proved to be with an incredible history and impressive collection of serious books in English.
Wandering past the Concergerie we saw an inviting small line, so spent another interesting hour or so in this former palace and prison. A good morning spent, we had a simple lunch like the Parisians do - people watching in a corner cafe.
I succumbed to the cold for a little rest before some pre dinner drinks in the hotel. We then took the long march to Les Halles for dinner in L’Apibo restaurant where we enjoyed dinner 3 years ago. It proved to be excellent once again and so much better than our brassiere meal last night.
