... dinner we made our way to the authentic French bar… O’Sullivans where we met the rest of our tour mates (they decided to pay the 114 Euros to go to the burlesque show… we did not). Using the term "trashed" to describe their level of intoxication would not be sufficient. They were insane!

... German soprano Angela Denoke - which was interesting Weimar type, Marlene Dietrich, Kurt Weill-ish music. It gave us the chance to see inside this amazing building ... it is a wonder of space and glorious decoration. And ...

... London staff. Our tour was led by Norman, my architecture professor who is a mere 78 years old, except you would never know because he walks so fast. The one "old trait" that I would say he has though is that when ever we got on the bus to go somewhere, he would use the microphone and go on and on about stuff; but when he was done talking he would never move the microphone away from his face, so you would be stuck ...

... see the building and the fountains right beside it. So I was happy. After that we got hungry and we went to this restaurant called Flunch. It was awful. It was basically like a cafeteria where you grab a bunch of stuff and then pay at the end. I did not enjoy it. Plus there was this guy next to us that kept glaring at me. Then when I got up to leave he clears his throat and says (in English) "You're gonna die". That was comforting to hear. The only good thing about Flunch ...

... full. Norm put us in touch with the organiser who tried to do her best for us but we will not be attending the dinner after all. Apart from lugging Fletcher's dinner suit the whole way, we don't really mind as it was very expensive so we save ourselves quite a lot of money. We hope to catch up with Norm and Serena again on Sunday. The rest of the day we walked!! We went up the Champs Elysees to the Arc de Triomphe and then through the streets past the Opera, the Bourse, Les ...

... of walking and enjoyed wonderful meals at various bistros throughout the city. We had a wonderful time. Disneyland was an experience in itself. Having never been to Disney World or Disneyland, California, we thought it was wonderful. You need at least two FULL days to make a dent .

... the spacious clouds, and along the landscape and flowing currents. Here is realization; Here is a man tallied - he realizes here what he has in him; The past, the future, majesty, love - if they are vacant of you, you are vacant of them. The Soul travels; The body does not travel as much as the soul; The body has just as great a work as the soul, and parts away at last for the journeys of the soul. All parts away for the progress of ...

... But i must say, french people are crazy drivers... There are no lanes marked out on the road, if there are supposed to be four lanes, there will be five cars and three scooters; especially at the Arc de Triumph (12 lane round about) there was cars going in every which direction. Today we spent the morning going up the Eiffel Tower, then we went over to the ...

... lá se reuniam para provar dos cabarés e teatros, já não possui o mesmo charme que escandalizava os cidadãos mais recatados da Paris daquele tempo. Entretanto a colina (onde está a Sacré-Coeur) continua bonito e o bairro permanece com o ar de cidade pequena, oferecendo talvez a segunda melhor vista da cidade, atrás apenas da Torre Eiffel. Ao lado da Sacré-Coeur aproveitei para conhecer o museu de Salvador Dali. Bizarro é a palavra. Além de uma boa quantidade de obras surrealistas do ...

... behavior! We followed along the trodden path. Garbage trucks were already starting to clean up the water bottles and oranges strewn along the route to our first destination, the Viaduct des Arts. We'd read that it was a delightful place with artisans and artist shops with a garden path above it. We climbed upstairs and found the elevated walkway a little dull. I'd expected beautiful plantings as there are a few blocks away along the marina and quais ...
