medieval garden at the cluny museum
one of my favorite places to read the most recent Buffy comic is in the lovely medieval garden located to the northeast corner of the (as my friend andrew calls it) "george clooney museum*" which is just a hop, skip and jump from my "local" comic book store, Album.
the museum is worth a visit too, especially for those of you into "old stuff". as it's the "middle ages" museum, they have amongst their treasures: cool old keys, some old armor, stuff found in the seine, really old shoes, old church stuff, stained glass windows, a unicorn horn (actually a tooth of a narwhal), tapestries, and their crowning glory: The Lady and the Unicorn tapestries .
but anyway, today i went there to read - but somebody had beat me to it...
*also known as the "musée national du moyen âge" or the "cluny museum".

My favorite part of the museum is the Rosemary Clooney Wing which is even older (see how cleverly I picked up on the joke?).
It contains the old roman baths that have been excavated on the site.
