29-Sept 2008 Paris Blog #10

Here are some random shots around the 5eme, 13eme and 14eme areas.
Yesterday I went to see a movie with a friend. I love the cinemas in Paris, they take it very seriously. Except we had two lovers behind us eating popcorn like piggies and then kisses like they were drowning... YUK! Anyway, popcorn is relatively new in theaters here. We saw a new French movie that will probably be in the US eventually it was fun...."Faubourg '36"

The other day in the Metro I saw a poster that I had to photograph:

Apparently it is a movie coming out very similar to the Oliver Stone one about to come out in the US. You should go to the site, it is in French, but you can view the trailer which is in English:

My friend Jillian and I took the Metro to the Jardin des Plantes and walked around.

All over Paris right now they have these giant maps you can walk on to get a scope of the size of France. It is pretty cool to see places you have visited and their proximity to everything else.


Also took some creepy statue photos in the gardens. Do you see the dinosaur bones in the back ground, paleo museum....

We also sat in this great little square and had a coffee then she went off to buy shoes and I walked home. Saw some cute little shops like this florist.

Oh also walked by the ancient roman arena ruins here in the city:
