We started off with breakfast at Café de la Presse, a Parisian inspired cafe where we both had a ham and cheese omelet with wedge fries, an English muffin, and fresh orange juice. Delicious! From there we took a taxi to the Palace of Fine Arts for a walking tour. After arriving a bit early we took photos of the gorgeous (and no doubt expensive) houses that overlooked the park.
While taking photos I noticed that there appeared to be some dust stuck inside the camera and Andy, refusing to let it go, removed the lens to get to it and in the process broke the camera! (My baby!) When we tried to take a photo everything was black. As you can imagine I was not a happy camper! Trying to move past the broken camera and make the most of our time we went on the walking tour, which ended up not quite living up to our expectations.
Afterwards we walked all over the city trying to see if we could get the camera fixed, only to find out it would take weeks and likely a few hundred dollars. Since we can’t live without a good camera we ended up buying a new one, with the hope that we can fix the old camera when we get home and sell it. At the end of the day we returned to the hotel and Andy was able to fix the camera back to its previous (yet still dusty) state.

After a grueling day of walking until our feet felt like they were going to fall off we decided to do something easy for dinner. We got a bite to eat at In And Out Burger and made it our mission to try the 3 major fast food chains that we don’t have here: In and Out Burger, Jack in the Box, and Karl’s Jr. After having tried them all I have to say that I don’t feel that I’m missing out on much.
Lesson of the day: Don’t go messing with the inside of your camera if you don’t know what you’re doing! Cameras are expensive to fix and expensive to buy.
