I took a long slow walk from the apartment towards Avenue des Champ-Elysees to catch the main sights such as Arc du Triomphe, Grand Palais, Petit Palais and Louvre.
Along Avenue des Champ-Elysees, there were also a number of car showrooms with some car designs which I had never seen before and wanting to take a closer look, I stepped into a couple of them.
While visiting the sights, I got a call from Fabien and we arranged to have lunch together since he was near the area.
After lunch, he brought me to the auction houses of Drouot. It was the first time I visited an auction house and was an eye-opener! The building was filled with numerous rooms, almost all with live auction happening at the time of my visit, varying from paintings, artefacts, decoration, statues etc. I was so afraid of making any sudden hand movements in case someone thought I was bidding on the items!
