I was bored so I took a little walk around Paris. I first went to the Bibliotheque nationale de France, which is this enourmous, brand-new building. I saw the "L'enfer de la bibliothque" exhibit inside, which was essentially just porn from the 1600s. Well, it was more than that. I saw some Marquis de Sade manuscripts, Japanese erotica, a Dali etching that he apparently made while masturbating. Interesting stuff. The point of is was that all the books they were showing had been at one time banned and hidden, or something. To be honest I didn't really read the explainations because I'm lazy. Anyways, I don't have pictures of the dirty stuff, just the building:
Here's the cool pedestrial bridge infront of the BnF.
A view of the BnF from the other side of the Seine. Like I said, HUGE!
I saw some cool outdoor sculptures as I walked on.
Found a skating park.
Then I explored Bercy park, which is beautiful. Even though it's March and things are still pretty barren, it was a gorgeous, sunny day. There are flowers in bloom in Paris people! Sooo much nicer than the late-winter blizzards Canada is getting hammered with.
If I had money, I would buy one of these condos overlooking the park. Bercy is one of my favourite parts of town because it seems much more modern. It's also by my favourite giant movie complex.
Ducks!
Then I walked to Bastille to have a quick coffee with Phillip. Here's Place de la Bastille.
And the Opera.
And Phillip, in the Starbucks as usual. Drawing on his awesome tablet computer.
And here's a pic of me that I took in a reflective window. I think it looks cool! I like the jogger in the background.

I think you have a typo. "Anyways, I have to pictures of the dirty stuff, just the building." There should be a don't in there, or some more pictures on the blog.
Keep postin'. I'm still reading it.
