Heh...delayed pictures too!


Apparently I skipped a week of uploading pictures...oops!

Anyway, below is the Institut du Monde Arabe. It's a very, very cool building. It has a museum of Middle Eastern art inside it, the best part of which was a gallery of amazing rugs. I was not allowed to take photographs inside, however...

I took this picture of the Seine and Notre Dame after I left the Institut. I love it.

This is a picture of one of the fabulously eccentric metro bands. The spot they're playing at is right in the heart of Chatelet, the biggest metro station in Paris. There's almost always a group here, and they're usually pretty cool.

Some ISEP friends of mine learning how to salsa! I was at a birthday party that somehow turned into an impromptu dance lesson.

This is the window display of the strangest store in Paris. They sell umbrellas. Fancy umbrellas. Umbrellas that costs multiple hundreds of Euros to buy. Inside, there is fake snow everywhere and an enormous dog lying in the middle of it who raises his head halfheartedly when someone enters.


And then you have "Molière's Chair." This was the actual chair Molière sat in when he played the lead role in his play L'Invalid Imaginaire.
