Somewhere in the Marais

After a leisurely breakfast with the host (hosted 5,000 guests from 100 countries in 10 years) and armed with tips from the best chocolate to a herboristerie to obtain vitamins I set off for Metro Bourse. It turned out to be near the Jardin du Palais Royale which was lovely to sit in. I spent time there then walked. Lunch was in a recommended local restaurant. Then I wandered more, went to Galleries La Fayette (tourists only now, according to my host) and took a picnic dinner to Place des Vosges. A nice day!
