The sun has got his hat on... but it's too hot to play.

In case anyone hadn't noticed. Its really hot atm. Like REALLY hot.

So hot that we are currently passed out in my flat, lacking the energy to move.

Seeing as much of Paris as I can this weekend is going well...

Yesterday the Paris Plages opened! And although I haven't yet ventured onto them, I plan to asap next week. Then are open from 9am-midnight which will be perfect for a cooler, evening visit.
However, if you're in need of somewhere to rest, but can't face the thought of being covered in a sweaty/sandy combo, there is a great little park at Pont Neuf, opposite the beach called Vert Galant. This place would be the perfect spot to meet friends for a picnic and even on a Saturday it wasn't too busy.

Today, we went to the Breakfast In America south of the river for some hangover-curing pancakes (so daymm yummy)
and as we were in that direction we decided to pop into the Jardin des Plantes. This place is lovely, it feels like they have picked up a museum from the South of France and dropped it in Paris. The only downer was the park warden stopping anyone chilling on the grass... but in slightly cooler weather I would definitely recommend a trip there to escape the hustle and bustle.
Oh and there's a zoo for €9 pp. with a leopard and everything.

Happy Sunday!
