Paris When It Drizzles

I finally got to use the title. I had enough drizzly Paris to justify it. We managed some full on rain as well, but for the most part it was a not too unpleasant level of drizzly.

And finally got to the Musee d'Orsay. Crikey there's a lot of famous paintings in there. Is it because I know more paintings now than when I first went to the National or the Louvre or MoMA or is it that it just contains more famous paintings? So many famouses. And the building's not too shabby either with its Sacre-Coeur-view clocks.

Went up the Tour Montparnasse. Turns out that's a thing. And a thing with shorter queues than most of the other things. Champagne on the roof would be a thing but the drizzle had a bit of an edge to it by then so made the rooftop less romantic and more ridiculous.

Snails. Steak tartare. Red wine. Baguette. Camembert. Paris, consider your box ticked for a bit.
