Paris Fri and later. April 12, 2013

Days are marching by.  Friday was again cool and overcast.  We are to meet friends for lunch Saturday so we decided to psych out the route and the meeting place to be sue we would find it and be on time Saturday.  Finding bus stops is often a challenge and as we looked for the right one, the skies opened and we had a deluge.  What to do?  Stopin a nearby Starbucks for an espresso and regroup. the rain let up in about 5 minutes.  With local help we found the bus stop and were off to find Chatelet and Teatre duChatelet.  That was pretty easy and with just a bit of walking about we decided it best to find the bus back since the skies were most threatening.  And a good thing we did because in about 3 minutes we heard hail pounding the top of the bus as we watched the ice pellets jump in the street.  It was quite a storm - April in Paris.

Have to get lunch.  Back later.
