Paris, Night One

Here in Paris...it was a bumpy ride getting here, but now that I am here, I have some distinct plans as to what I am doing with my time.  I will spend the time immersing myself in the museums, one day a piece, and create a series of preliminary works and sketches for a more in depth series.

On Wednesday, my final day here, I will be in the Marais to meet with some new gallery curators, and hopefully strike up some interesting connections.  I always like to have meetings with them, and will continue to press forward even after my somewhat disorienting arrival!

I am staying in a hotel in Monmartre, and although it is quite clean, modern and well-equipped, I have a noisy neighbor who must have his music on a loop, since the same bass beat has been playing since I checked in this afternoon, and now it is just driving me nuts, hence my blogging at 1 a.m. 
I would call the night desk and complain, but they probably wouldn't understand me anyway, so what is the point??  I will just try to put some tissue in my ears, and take an Advil p.m. 

So, tomorrow, off to the Musee D'orsay as my first stop.  I did have a relaxing evening after an exhausting day so I hope to have a very interesting and productive day tomorrow in the museum, and a relaxing evening to follow.

So, that is the itinerary for tomorrow.  I did have some lovely photos of Sacre Coeur from tonight, but I am too lazy to get out of bed and get my phone and upload them, haha.  Tomorrow. Time to try and get some sleep, if possible with all of that racket.  Goodnight all.
