The rather plain grave of Samuel Beckett.
An overview of the cemetery.Here I am at the grave of de Beauvior and Sartre. It was covered with metro passes with notes written on them and held in place with a small stone.
Our next stop was the fly-fishing shop I located, but first we had to cross the Seine. Here is a shot of me crossing the Seine on our way to the shop. It was just across the bridge and the water below is not a bad spot to fish.
The la Masion de la Mouche fly-fishing shop. It was a great place to look around and talk fishing with the owner. Speaking of the owner he is the son of the guy who started it in the 1920s and Hemingway was a frequent customer and storyteller at this shop. I bought a set of flies called the "Hemingway set" as they were the flies he typically used when fishing the Seine. A very fun stop.
Below, a shot of Hemingway fly-fishing.

Day 5 looked quite relaxing...
Everything looked beautiful in Paris and looks like you had a great time. But, do they have any good beer in Paris?
