Paris Planning November 2008
Narrowing down our list of stuff we want to do, while keeping enough buffer room in for spontaneity, is truly an art form.
Help us paint our picture.
Here’s our rough itinerary and short list:
- Depart MUC for CDG at 10:35 on Thursday, November 27 (we’ll train it down to the airport)
- Check into the Sully Saint-Germain (pictured at right) sometime the same day
- Marché des Enfants Rouges
- Museum Discount pass?
- Les Catacombes
- Les Dingues (scroll down to number 3 on that page)
- Centre Pompidou
- Old Marais Quarter walking tour
- and if we like that, maybe even a walking tour focused on the Resistance and Liberation the next day
- Musée National du Moyen Age/Thermes de Cluny (Musée de Cluny)
- Check out of the Sully Saint-Germain on Monday, December 1st
- Depart CDG for MUC at 18:20 on Monday, December 1st (train if possible back to Regensburg, otherwise maybe spur-of-the-moment AirportLiner
What have you done? What would you have done (differently)?

thanksgiving a few days early
That’s two great meals with friends in two days. I’m having such a good time this weekend already, I think I need to take tomorrow off just to recover!
Highlights of the evening:
- I got the fruity curry juice stuff all over my jeans when Tammy came to pick us up and the liquid sloshed over the sides of the pan. It wasn’t her driving; it was the fact that we’d made a double-batch and neglected to check how much liquid there actually was in there. Fortunately I borrowed some sweat pants from Matthias and they washed/dried my jeans while we ate.
- We met Matthias’ sister and her boyfriend who are very nice.
- We spoke a lot more German than normal for us on a weekend. This also applies somewhat to the party we attended in Munich last night.
- While packing up and getting ready to go, it seemed my shoes had disappeared from the front hall of their apartment. Then I looked down and spotted them on Rainer’s feet. Mirth ensued.
The Curried Fruit seemed to be a success, even if some parties were a bit cautious about trying it at first or thought it must be intended as a dessert (and it does go great with vanilla ice cream, for the curious). I am pleased that most of it got eaten and leftovers were divvied up. And I’m looking forward to all manner of leftovers tomorrow.
