Buddha Bar.

Written on Tuesday, December 05, 2007

Today was not the greatest of days. I am in a state where I hate everything that I have in my suitcase to wear and long for new things. So I ventured out shopping with Adrienne and was having no such luck. I was getting really upset over it and wanting to go home and shop as absurd as that sounds. European shopping sounds fine and dandy in theory but it actually isn’t all what it is cracked up to be. It is very expensive and it is disheartening when you see lots of American brands that are way overpriced compared to at home.

Anyways on a more upbeat note, Mauricio’s boyfriend Daniel came to visit. He is only going to be here for 48 hours which is SO crazy! He is on one of the princess shows and had a Friday opening this week so he flew all the way to Paris! He had wanted to go to the Buddha Bar while he was here, which is this really well known place that is super posh and very expensive. This place was packed. The ambience was very dim with lots of candles and an Indian décor including a massive Buddha statue. It looked like it should be a really chill calm place but then they have this techno oriental music blaring so you could hardly hear people!

It was quite pricy and we all ordered the things that were on the cheaper side. I feel like our waiter was quite peeved at us. He also was giving us quite the glares when we had the nerve to take pictures at the end! It was neat going and I’m glad I got to see this place that apparently Madonna has been to but I won’t be going back anytime soon.
