Notre 9e Semaine: Just Another Week

31 photos that pretty much sum of the title of this one.

In retrospect this week was very unmemorable. I had to review these photos to discover how we spent our time. In brief: we spent some more time with Nat's family and her Aunt Dany from Switzerland; visited the Cite des sciences and de l'industrie; and took a stroll through Andre Citroen park.

The end.

Magical.

So without further ado...

Week 9 in 31 photos


Corey visits Trocadero.


Redefining "scafolding."


Pretty.


Palais de Tokyo modern art museum. Countdown to the end of the Sun above the door.


Hotel Everland 1-room hotel perched on top of Palais de Tokyo til the end of the year. Only 444E per night.


A building that reminded me of Gaudi.


I get to meet Nat's aunt Dany.


The ladies with kir and champagne.


Kir for the boys. We got the price/value option.


In the Metro on the way to dinner with Bernard's friends from kindergarten.


Ducks in Bercy park.


Bercy park, quaint.


A quick stroll through Bercy Village. Feels similar to Toronto's distillery district.


The Science Centre. Nat smiles because this experience hasn't underwhelmed her yet.


Part of the Citroen 2CV exhibit. Some guy harassed interviewed us for Swiss radio.


Entrance to the Epidemik game. This experience (below) was probably worth the student reduced-priced admission.


The interactive game is projected from above. Players travel around the arena trying to stay healthy.


Nat's flies solo at the command centre (after I ditch her) and saves Manhattan with her decision-making skills.


The interface that follows you around. Notice that I didn't lose any lives.


Optical illusion!


Although far more convincing to the naked eye vs. this camera.


Nat gets excited over the map of the human genome.


One of our neighbours dumps his dustpan into the common courtyard. Repeatedly. This is very French (not the littering, but us spying on him).


Welcome to Andre Citroen park. We were greeted by teenage boys shrieking as a rat ran by.


The sun dial is broken, please insert a new sun.


Nat chewing new Bubbalicious flavour: hot air balloon.


These fountains are probably lovely in the summer.


The guidebook mentioned sculptures but we never found any.


Waterfall A.


Across from Waterfall B.


Meticulous landscaping.
