A pretty slow day today. I spent the morning watching snooker. There's something cosmopolitan about watching an English guy play snooker against an Irish guy in a tournament in China, with the announcers speaking German, all from a French hotel.
I also watched part of the Northern Ireland Open. If you like snooker at all, you should watch the match between Shaun Murphy and Marco Fu.
In the afternoon I walked around. Some in Saint Oeun, some in Saint Denis, and some on an island in the Seine -- L'Île-Saint-Denis. I tried to access the closed street from the other end of the construction zone, but it had barricades and gates and signs. I'll just mark it as inaccessible in Open Street Map, and once the update flows through to City Strides, along with a few other updates marking some streets as private, that should get me to 100%. (Eventually the construction will finish, the sidewalk will open, and someone will edit the street to again be accessible. But until then, I'll be at 100% for Saint Ouen.)
I then headed to the stadium early for the Argentina v. England match. You can find the full details in the match writeup, but I ate at Wilson's Grill on the way, and then met up with Justin and some of his family at a bar before the match.
