Getting a cold.

Took a lovely walk last night. I first explored the "Quartier de la Mouzaïa" in the 19th. Its a few blocks from my house, a hidden jewel of village-like Paris. Every house has a garden, the streets are wide, quiet and tree-lined.

I then walked along the Canal St. Martin. Perfect. The scene is: a gorgeous, wide canal that runs for miles. On either side are wide quays just packed with 20-40 year olds, hanging out, having a drink, having a picnic, chatting. There's obviously no open-container law in effect. People play music, its just perfect.
