On our Block

We're around the corner from the supposedly famous rue Cler market and close to the Eiffel Tower and the Gold Dome church where Napoleon's coffin is, so it's pretty busy, though there isn't anything on this street itself. What there is is a Chinese restaurant, and every day at lunch and dinner times there are several buses double-parked across the street dropping Chinese tour groups.

Good street entertainment on rue Cler today. Three women- one playing the accordion and the other two singing. I bought a large bag or carrots, because the carrots here are terrific and some shelling peas from Morocco. My last shopping expedition. Kind of sad. I could definitely live like this.
