Le Weekend

My supervisor bought a bunch of different foods for everyone to at lunch on Friday. It was a little bit of a good-bye party for two of the workers. Also got out a little early! Ended up going out to eat at a Thai restaurant near the Place d'Italie stop, in the 13th Arr. Afterwards went out to a bar with some girl friends as the first night of celebrating on of the girls' 21st birthday. 



The next morning I went to the Porte de Vanves flea market, which had an incredibly long stretch of stands selling a wide variety of things, from designer shoes, to vintage postcards, to furniture, to prints. 


 After getting lunch me and a few girls headed over to the 5th Arr. for a tour inspired by movie scenes set in Paris! It was such a fun and different way to get to know the city!



Stopped by Place de la Concorde for a picture in front of the fountain. 

Line of students waiting to get let into la bibliotheque Saint-Genvieve. They only let a certain mount of students in, so they have a one in, one out policy.



A VERY pricey menu.. 98 EUR for lunch...

Later that evening after celebrating the girl's more officially over dinner, we went out to a club on the Seine for some dancing! 


As for Sunday, I didn't get around to too much since just about everything was closed. I stopped by the store to pick up some birthday gifts for my mom and sister, and then got some bread and macarons from a local bakery to bring to work tomorrow. 

Gigantic macarons!
