Canal St Martin.
We went to Canal St Martin today to join Daddy for lunch at Hotel du Nord. First stop was collect Daddy from his work and for Felix to have a little sit on Daddy's very stylish grass-covered vespa.
We then set off for Hotel Du Nord, a great little restaurant with the most delicious food.
Felix was a very big boy and sat up at the table. He is now becoming quite accustomed to dinning with the adults - none of this baby high chair business (besides they are impossible to find in Paris). 
After a lunch filled with toy cars, bread baskets and tastes of everyone's meals, it was time to go to the park and get out some of that toddler energy or at the very least to get out the cars again.
The canal was a lovely backdrop to the afternoon ... although there was a moment of panic when it looked like two boats were going to collide in the canal. 
But luckily the canal was wide enough for both of them. Phew!
So Felix continued with his rock gathering mission, until luckily we managed to distract him, put him back in the pram and take him home just in time for a very long late afternoon nap!!

Not too sure I want him getting used to the idea of a scooter just yet!
I love the face he's pulling on the picture of the boats colliding.
He's saying "don't you fools realise there is about to be a major maritime disaster? LOOK !"
Rumour has it since he's started his rock collecting phase the pram is a good two kilos heavier...
We'll have to book Bon Papa in for a meal at l'hotel du Nord, it's full of "atmosphere, atmosphere" and the seared tuna mille feuille is to die for.
As is the "vins de promesses" rose.
Bon Papa's mouth is already watering... Away with worries about the girth !
"Atmosphere ? Atmosphere ? Est-ce que j'ai une tete d'Atmosphere ?" Daddy knows his French cine-classics !
Felix is so cute! What a little boy he is now. And so Bransdon!! (sorry Matthew). It's all in his eyes...
