a few more notes on paris from continued observation.

8. the keyboards. are. ridiculous. "paris is beautiful in march" becomes "pqris is bequtiful in ,qrch." and i won't even begin to tell you where they put the period on this thing. it boggles the mind. my poor little brain is about to explode from having to relearn how to type.

9. the louvre is massive. bring nice walking shoes and perhaps a canteen. we were at one point so lost in the ancient egypt exhibit that i thought our bodies would be found and tossed into a sarcophagus years later.

10. seriously, did i mention the dogs? beautiful, expensive dogs in every restaurant and store and on every street corner.

11. little children speaking french are adorable. i can think of no better souvenir than a french child except maybe for a french dog, but i don't think mom would let me keep either of them in the shed.

12. you must have very cool shoes to be french. they should probably be red. yes, even if you are a teenage boy or a ninety year old woman. red shoes are the way to go. which is partially good, because i have an assortment of red shoes, and partially bad, because they are all in oklahoma.

pictures and notes on london: coming soon.
