We took the metro to the 13th Arrondissement to visit the Asian quarter. We ate delectable duck and shrimp dishes, and then visited food stores and shops and watched people. We bought some dried bananas.
We walked on to the Place d'Italie where this man began his performance, sporting a t-shirt with the name "Papy Dance". G.thought that a street performer of his age really needed a tip.
Then we went to the Foire des Livres (Book Fair) which is held every Saturday and Sunday at Parc Georges Brassens. I didn't buy anything, although I really wanted an Asterix. There were beautiful, classic travel and history books with plates of photographs. We vicariously visited parts of North Africa, Asia and Polynesia. G. hoped to find something good on Australia.
