Plug Inn Hostel

Before the chocolate tour, I found a huge farmer's market type place indoors. It was wonderful and I wanted to go back and get lunch there today, but it did not happen (perhaps tomorrow). I think it was called empirical something? If you are by the stop of Serves-Babylone, try to find it - you won't be disappointed.

After my chocolate tour it was off to find my hostel. I went from the train to the metro with no problem and found my stop. I looked at my directions which read "a two minute walk from metro." After walking around for about thirty minutes and then sitting out of the rain for 15 minutes, I asked a souvenir shop vender and he showed me mapquest directions. Turns out, I was a street away earlier, se la via.

I met up with one of my roommates for the night, Estelle from Switzerland, and we went searching for food. We found a place - no seats, found another place - but it began to rain so the outside seats were no good, found another place - and went in. The tables were so close together, that the owner had to pull out the table for me to get in and then he closed me in. I was hungry and by the time the food came, I was starving. I got a salad with chicken and curry. It was very tasty and huge, I was full way too fast and had to stop. No dessert for me.

We went back to the hostel (Plug Inn Hostel) and met our other two roommates for the night, Kari from California and Paul from South Africa. We got along and all went to sleep pretty early.
