Feeding the Ducks

Today I wanted to get a touch of nature, so I walked to the Bois de Boulogne after buying a loaf of pain court from the boulangerie down the street. I headed to the Lac Superieur, (ironically, the smaller lake of the two in the Bois), and sat on a grassy knoll to feed the ducks.


It wasn't exactly sunny but it was very warm, and it was nice to sit on the grass with a sleeveless shirt on! Ducks have a good communication system, apparently, and soon practically every duck in the lake was at my feet, wanting to be fed. That loaf disappeared really quickly! Even a mommy and her ten babies came over:


It was good to get out of the actual city a bit and relax for even just an hour outside in the good weather. Tomorrow it's supposed to be foggy and then rain is coming...luckily I'll be in Greece where it's supposed to be in the 70s! I'm not even sure if I know how to handle that kind of heat anymore!
