Montmartre – Day 8

2022 Babymoon in Paris

So, I asked Ray to do the post yesterday since he knows and understands more about music stuff than I do with the promise that I’d do the next two. Little did I know how easy my job would be!

Today we had planned to visit the last item on our list for this area – an Avant-Garde Museum called Le Musée d’Art Naïf – but once we got there we realized they were between exhibitions (for the only time in the whole year!). So as we stood outside in the rain we wondered what else we could possibly do. So we decided to take a vacation from our vacation and spend this wet and rainy day inside our cozy little apartment watching movies and eating good food (shhhh … don’t tell anyone!)

We grabbed some donuts from a place nearby and then headed upstairs to listen to the rain, eat good food, and binge Station Eleven. Ray even ordered us some Lebanese food for delivery – we’re really starting to feel like locals now, LOL! Ray remarked the other day that the more comfortable we get the more our calorie intake and output shifts and today seems to be a perfect example of this!

For the record, we have been watching a movie nearly every evening with the theme (for the most part) being French history or French films. So far, we’ve watched:

  • Midnight in Paris
  • Paris Je T’aime
  • Ratatouille
  • Les Miserables (The one with Liam Neeson)
  • Marie Antoinette
  • Hunchback of Notre Dame
  • La Vie En Rose
  • Alphaville
  • Taken
  • As Above So Below
  • Davinci Code
  • Inferno
  • Angels & Demons
  • Love Actually
  • Schmiggadoon
  • Station Eleven

Tomorrow we move on to our final neighborhood – close to the Eiffel Tower, the Invalides and more. The adventure continues!
