July 13th - Bal des Pompiers

After another day of experiments not working, I headed over to see the exhibits in the Pompidou museum. They were ok. Some really nice pieces but others just weird and inexplicable.

The evening of the 13th is the Bal des Pompiers. The firefighters of Paris throw parties in their firehouses. Apparently, firefighters are seen as the sex symbol of Paris.

We tried 2 places but the line was completely ridiculous, wrapping around 2 blocks at least. So instead, we settled for a drink in a bar while listening to the music and watching the people stand in line. It wasn't so bad.
