My second day in Paris is a rainy one but we went out none the less. I took my nephew's young family to a nice lunch along a river front, La Loise. The food was awesome, but a thunderstorm surprised us and we had to move inside the restaurant from the terrace. It rained for a while so we stayed put until it stopped. Cergy is a suburb of Paris where my nephew lives, it a very nice town full of students but really quiet. After the rain, we went food shopping in the weekly market. Just like everywhere I have been around the world, they sell everything in theses markets; fresh food, clothes and yes junk.... We bought fresh Mediterranean sardines and other veggies and fruits... Here are few pictures from my day today...

The day ended with a great sardine and couscous dinner made by Katia, my nephew's wife... What treat I thought.. She really spoiled me these last two days... She is a great cook and wanted to make me every dish I have not had for a while so she has a list... The day was a build up for a very important game of soccer that was to start at 8:30 pm: Real Madrid -Atletico Madrid for a final of the European cup....
The winner was Real Madrid
End game celebration....
