The week

I was really tired for most of the week. Going to bed late on Sunday didn't help and things just built from there.
On Tuesday we had another of our big monthly meetings. This time it wasn't held at the office where I work but was on another site to the north of La Defense. It's a big site in 4 parts and is easier to get to than where I work.
I left work at about 17:30 and went home, picked up my camera, and went out again to try and get some pictures of Paris as the sun was setting. By the time I got to Place de la Concorde it had already set but I managed to get a couple of the obelisk and the Eiffel Tower lit up.


Whilst I was there about 8 police vans went past. They were off to see off some more people protesting about the CPE (I'll write about this soon - probably this weekend as there may be a general strike next Tuesday).
Afterwards I went to a place called "The 5th". It was quite a good place - beer was €3.50 a pint which is the cheapest I've seen it.
The next day I was so tired at work. So I did the obvious thing and went to a French friend's place for pasta. A few of us got together as one of the girls from work has left (she's finished her internship).

Despite being tiring, the week went pretty quickly and Thursday evening was spent packing ready to go back to England.
