It was a lovely day today, made even lovlier when I took a promenade along the Seine after french class with some of my class mates. We stopped for Chinese food for lunch (oddly familiar meal for me and a nice change from all the bread, cheese and wine one has over here), and then made our way from the 6th arrondissement where the school is over to le Hotel de Ville (city hall) close to where I live. The photo exhibition we had hoped to see there was unfortunately over, but it was a nice walk and we had lots of opportunity to practice our french and browse the booksellers lined up with their little stalls along the river banks.
French lesson of the day: The word "oui" comes from the archaic verb "ouir" which means "to hear".
