Paris - Day 3

Saturday 26 September

Found a nice street market to have breakfast in, before visiting the Natural History Museum. This is spread across many buildings, each with their own ticket costs, so we plumped for the Evolution building - which had a great interior, and many interesting stuffed animals, but was light on information - then the outdoor Menagerie.

Effectively a miniature zoo, we still managed to kill about 3 hours in the sun, and saw some great animals - capybaras, bush dogs, Russian wolves (renards des Steppes), armadillos, and a surprisingly active sloth.

Took the underground RER train across the city to see the miniature Statue of Liberty, before walking around underneath the Eiffel Tower - this time to admire the tenacity and perseverance of the crappy merchandise touts. Returned home on the RER and ate dinner once more at the crepe restaurant.
