Took the metro today to another English language bookstore, the Red Whellbarrow, on the fringes of the Marais district and picked up a copy of Mysteries of Pittsburgh, Michael Chabon's first book. Then we headed to a French bookstore and Lucie bought the last volume of Proust's Rememberance of Things Past. After that, we headed to the Gare de Lyon train station and picked up Lucie's friend Julie, and Rose, Julie's daughter and Lucie's goddaughter. We had a leisurely Italian meal across the way from Lucie's grandmother's apartment complex and now they have strolled to the Eiffel Tower so Rose can ride the donkeys there. I've stayed behind purportedly to write but I'm procrastinating.....
