It was a really nice lunch, though the pizzas were shaped really oddly. They also weren't cut so it made for interesting eating. After lunch, we said good-bye to Sophie and we made our way to the Sacre Coeur Church. It was pretty far away, but it was certainly worth the drive. As we went inside, we were greeted with ...

He had on regular clothes and a scary Halloween mask, the thin rubber kind that looks like a mass murderer. He'd hide behind a wall or keep his head down and then scare people as they passed by. It might not sound all that funny but it was very enjoyable, especially for the children ...

... little worried my bag would be lost in transition when we found out it was delivered after we switched hotels. To our luck the lady at the front desk accepted my bag from the airline thinking it was for someone else. I got my clothes back and could finally change out of my pants. I was dying of heat. Chris is having a good time walking the streets and drinking coffee and beer at the outside cafes. But he does not ...

... que l'ordinateur a été branché sur la même boîte. Je vais demander à Pierre de regarder à ça, mais si le problème persiste, je vais demander à Yétoundé de m'appeler le technicien qui a fait la job pour qu'il revienne arranger ça. On veut acheter un Brita pour filtrer l'eau et boire l'eau du robinet. C'est parce que Micheline vient de lire dans son livre Anticancer que c'est la chose à faire. Et Pierre dit que çà va améliorer le goût de l'eau. Micheline a ...

... be on the one that was not heading in the direction we wanted to go. We got off and headed back to the point where it splits to take another train. We were not the only ones that did it, several people were doing the same thing as us. We got back to the station and followed the signs to catch the right train. We got on and after a stop we realized ...

We didnt get right to the very top but the view was great from the second tier. - Stumbling upon a really wierd exhibition of machines that had been put ...

... sights, Tour Effiel, Champs Elisee, Nortre Dame on my first day. I spent two mornings basking in the warmth and space of art galleries. Melissa, whom had spent last semester in Paris with the University of Guelph, and was also my inspiration for applying to the Krakow semester abroad, had graciously given me a list of things to see in her Paris. And I will agree with her, The Musee D'Orsay was wonderful. I spent ...
