Pierre & Vacances City Residence 'Porte De Versailles' Issy-les-Moulineaux

... This was the first time for Dad to drive on the right hand side of the road, and so we drove around the car park for a while for familiarisation. It certainly was a challenge to drive a strange car in a strange country with signs in another language on the ‘wrong’ side of the road! French drivers proved to be much more aggressive compared to English drivers, and Dad managed to suffer three or four shaking fists and ...

... on it. Basically I paid that much for the equivalent of a 59 cent roll from Publix and three slices of deli ham that would add about 50 more cents. A pack of gummiworms from the tiny market next door rounded out my meal and I will do it again for dinner. Paris is a very worthy stop on my world tour and I look forward to another afternoon here after my Tunisia visit. I am curious how tomorrow morning is going to ...

... Again, I was surprised I was never shanked. I return to my Hostel, drop off my gear in my room, walk downstairs to the bar, buy a beer and watch the rest of the game between England and South Africa. France ended up beating Argentina. The lineup was South Africa taking the World Cup title with England in second, then France, and finally Argentina. This was a huge deal for France since this was the first time, in a long time, that they made it to the World Cup Finals. On my ...

... dupa ce l-am inconjurat pe toate partile, ne-am razgandit cu urcatul ca fetitzu nu mai vrea sa urce. O luam la plimbare pe Champs-Elysees (unde ni se intamplara magaoaiele cu espresso la pret hyperastronomic si incidentul ala de la haagen-dazs despre care povesteam). La un moment dat vedem o multime de oameni. Discuta niste oameni ca ar astepta ceva vedeta si ca aia sunt fans. Lunadu-ma dupa varsta, imbracaminte si culoare, mai ca imi vine sa cred ca o fi ...

... we did) met back at the bus. It was about a 45 minute ride to the city of Versailles where the famous Palace of Versailles is located. Versailles was spectacular! Louis XIV, Louis XV, and Louis XVI all lived in this palace until Louis XVI and his wife Marie Antoinette were beheaded in the Place de la Concorde during the French Revolution. The palace was huge and grand and exquisitely decorated on both the inside and ...

... make it go away. This was in my top 5 worst days ever. I threw up over 13 times, for over 50 heaves. Most of it dry. Miserable. All afternoon. Could not move. Never doing this again. Chris fared a bit better, made it out around 4:00 to grab us a quick bite, which is when my misery started, all the way till after 8:00. We finally made it out at 9:00 to grab a pizza across the ...

... and daughter Milva be our guide. Chevy was our translator and I heard her speak more French than I'veheard in 7 years. The monuments are of course impressive and instead of just wandering through the Louvre overwhelmed by the magnitude, I took the Da Vinci Code audio tour which gave me a whole new appreciation for art.

... which is moored in the first salon) was in direct contrast to the boat's purpose--inspecting war vessels in the harbor. The boat was later remodeled to fit the tastes of Napoleon III. It is the only surviving vessel of its kind, luckily protected by the Germans during WWII, and afterwards being installed in the museum with much effort,including breaking down a wall of the palais to allow its ingress. The exhibitions I appreciated the most were the mementos of the Normandie--a ...
