in the afternoon, we walked to [Alesia station] direction in order to check [Stock] shop one the [Rue D' Alesia]street where is the street for selling Brand-name clothes in cheap price. However, It is disappointed me...I did not find any nice item in the shops. Oh...totally do not need to go there!!

Then, Honey and I went to [Auber]station which are some of famous department shop there...

I bought "Long Chanp Bag" in Galeries Lafayette!! Thank you, Honey!

We had dinner in Italian restaurant around there...but tast was not good!

Antique Market

11th of Sep 2010
*I wnet to two antique market!

First of all, I visit [Puces de la porte de Vanves]market is located in next to [Porte de Vanves] station. The market was just 50m long and small Market on [Avenue Marc Sangner]street. I think that it is not worth to go if you visit paris for a few days!

no one antiques attracted me!!

*After that...I went to the bigest antique market in paris which is [Porte de Clignancourt]subway station. There are huge antique market and Free Market for clothes, bag, and shoes etc...which many young people want to visit.

This antique Market is too big to see all ....there are many lane and thousand of antiqe shops all over ....yeah...i have not seen such a huge Antique Market in the UK.

There are also many cafe restaurant in this area!!

ルーブル美術館 12th of Sep 2010

今日は一日ルーブル美術館を訪れることに決めた！

約一年前の7月ものルーブルに来たけれど、Honeyは美術品にあまり興味がないし、ミュージアムPassを買っていたこともあり、時間の都合で移動、移動の観光だったから、ルーブルのすべてを見ていなかった！

9月と言うことで、館内に入るのに30分程度並んで入ることができた！短いほうだ！！チケットは9.5ユーロ。

今回は余裕をもってルーブルの館内をすべて見ることができた。気に入った美術品の写真を取りながら見るだけで5時間ほどかかった。昼食も館内一番のレストランで、チーズキッシュ食べた！

帰りは、近くでパンやケーキを買って、Honeyの待つHotelへ。Honeyは仕事が終わり、かなり疲れていました！

Walk Around Paris with Honey

the last day of our trip to Paris!!

Luckly, We could get into the Notre-dame Charch in this time without get line because It is not high season now! Opposite, unfortunately, my camera run out of battery so no one picture I could take....I would remain forever what's happend today!

After thant...we had a lunch in Mrche aux Puces(The largest Antique Market area in Paris where I went to by myself two days ago and I found French restaurant there at that time.
私は大好きなエスカルゴを食べました。

昼食後、エッフェル塔へ！二回目ですが、今回はエッフェル塔の下から少しゆっくり眺める時間があった！とはいえ、もう戻る時間。。。。

ホテルへ戻って、荷物を取り、Euro StarのStationへ向かいました。
ああ、、、Parisの4日間、あっと言う間に過ぎてしまいました。
次はいつ訪れるここができるのかな。。。。13．Sep．2010

The Sheraton Hotel in Lisbon August 2010

I and Honey choosed Sheraton Hotel & Spa in Lisbon.

It is excellent hospitality hotel. Luckily We could stayed business room. We were very satisfied about their service and hospitality.

We went to hotel by Taxi from airport. it is just 10min away to hotel. 10euro include charge of luggages

We arrived at hotel a bit early so we should wait one more hour wait in order to check in the room. There are two small shopping mall next to the hote.

we ate quick lunch there....

After check in...around 2pm. I and Honey went out to the city center by foot. it took us 20min to get center of Lisbon.

Information center is on the Rossio square and then a few more minute walk away,,,there is miain shopping street is called Rua de Augusta in Bixa area.

First of all, We went to "Se Catedral" and then walked around Augusta shopping area.

Secondly, we visited "Castelo de Sao Jorge" when it was going to the time of sun set.

Sao Jorge is on the hill and be able to wach down whole Lisbon city. I really recommend to visit Sao Jorge in the evening.

The road in Lisbon make us tierd easily because most of road are stone road, moreover, its is not flat stone. I think that I was first time to see and walk on the stone road all over in the city.

There are some cafe which sell egg tart. One of popular cafe is on the begining of Rua de Augusta road.

Pottery shop is called "Pollux" is on the "Rua da Madalena " street just a few alley away from the Augusta street.

Finally, We sat down and ate dinner in the cafe restaurant on Augusta street.

I had grilled Fish and Honey had Grilled Beef with olive! mmm...olive in Portugul is very fresh and tasty! I love that! Meal is 8 to 9euro per person, it was great price! ofcause its tasty!

We went back to the hotel by Metro! It is 0.80euro one way!

The second day in Lisbon

I have got a information about Free Bus from city center to outlet mall which is called "Free Port" and the lagest outlet mall in europe.

The bus leave at 10am from Praca Marques de Pombal bus station. this station is stop city sight seen bus as well.

Free bus is double deck bus and drive on the main street in the city to along sea side and then accross the bridge to outlet mall.

This rute is quite nice view we could see...especially when we accross the bridge! outstading! around 45min.

I wanted to go to Zara and Mango....(because there is nothing very special shop....) About Zara,, it is not real ZARA brand..Products are designed by Zara only!

About Mango,,,it is huge discounted but there are not many clothes in the shop. I bought some anyway...

and I got several of underwear.

We are quiet regret about outlet mall so we go back to city at 1pm bus. anyway it worth to take Free bus for sight seen.

After we came back from outlet mall....we took a break time in the hotel and went out to shopping mall in Oriente area by Metro.

Finally, I got two of Zara dress! Thank you Honey!

There is big supermarket underground of the mall. I bought many type of canded contained Fish! I love local supermarket!

We ate Grilled chicken in the food court in the mall. It was unexpected delicious!
