07.05.02: De la Ville Café, boulevard de Bonne Nouvelle
With the afternoon sunlight glowing a little too invitingly, and a distinctively intriguing feel to the interior, this one couldn't be passed up. Well, in fact it had been passed up just the night before, when Karolina and I came out of Chris Marker's Level 5 down the road at the Cinémathèque (James and his girlfriend Michelle were in the process of strategically bailing on me when Karolina appeared). Although she pointed it out as we looked for a place to get a drink, somehow our respective diplomacies kept us from settling on it. I'm not sure what I was on the way to/home from this time, but after an reasonable basking on the terrasse I took out my camera, studied the angles quickly, and launched myself into the final -- and most self-conscious -- phase of café-hopping.
