Somehow i thought i was going to be over my jetlag after the first day but at 3am last night i realized that might not be the case. So the last couple of days i've been walking around in abit of a haze and here are some of the random things i've seen.
In front of Notre Dame Cathedral, in celebration of its 850 anniversary, they've built a large set of bleachers, for a light show on the facade. I spent a half hour sitting up there watching a street performer upstage the cathedral. He was wearing a sort of frightening pig mask and would sneak up beside people and slip his arm through theirs, then they'd turn and see his face and jump or shriek. The crowd ate it up.

This is an art installation at the Palais de Tokyo. Look how nicely that old lady is sleeping despite being in the middle of an art museum. I bet she doesn't have jet lag.
This is from the same exhibition, which actually was about contemporary artists re-imagining cemeteries. Look what you can acheive with just some tinsel and plaster cast of jugs. But this piece also made slightly sleepy.
This is also from the Palais de Tokyo. Baitgogo by Brazilian Henrique Oliveira. A very impressive room size installation which turns the structure of the room back into the wood it came from. Up close it was very woody. After this it was time for a nap.
