Had a quick walk through the Jardin des Tuileries yesterday. There aren’t many flowers on show at the moment, seeing as the tulips have now finished, so it was quite boring. Took a few pics anyway.

- One Arm Push Ups – 2 reps each arm
- Half Burpees – 10 reps

Breizh Cafe Take 2
No one seems to like crepes as much as me. On my second trip to Breizh Cafe, I went with my parents and F. They thought it was ok, but wouldn’t have it again. It’s nothing against the Breizh Cafe though, they just don’t like crepes that much 
I on the other hand loved it again. I had both a savoury and sweet crepe this time and both were delicious. I’m not sure I like the apple cidre that much but it gets nicer as you drink more, lol. The service is great there too so I’m definitely looking to go back. I’ll either have to find some crepe lovers to go with or just go and eat crepes on my own.
Pré Catelan
The Pré Catelan (Catelan Meadow) is a small park right in the middle of Bois de Boulogne, not far from the Parc de Bagatelle. It’s a cute little park but can often be overrun by kiddies so if you want to visit in peace, be sure to get there early in the morning.
