GAY PARI!
(well i did enter wearing a pink t-shirt after all...)
;-)
Arrived at 7am after a night train from Heidelberg (Germany) and was stuffed on coffee and croissants by 9am!
(don't know if the old dude serving breakfast doesn't understand English properly or if just wanted to stuff us silly!)
Had a very Paris day! After a rest in the morning, we had lunch at a small French restaurant. I had steak tartare which was rather tasty. Nothing like a chunk of raw beef mince mixed with raw egg and herbs to give you the energy to take on the sights of Paris!
The Hotel of the Invalids (hors d' to the Revolution), Alex the 3rd bridge, L'Arc de Triumph and ye olde mighty Eiffel Tower! Tall and fantastic! Can't believe they were thinking of tearing it down at one stage! Haven't gone up it yet but will soon.
Have just finished watching a special on CNN about Osama bin Laden and now watching the CNN news report about the new Al Qaida tape on the net and potential terror arrests in England.
YEEHAA!
Think we shall be checking smarttraveller.gov.au to see what the recommendations are.
Speaking of the net, I have 13 days worth of blog sitting in my email begging to be published. There is internet at the hotel but it's bloody expensive. Saw a net cafe round the corner that'll hopefully be cheaper and I swear on Jim Morrison's grave (we'll hopefully see it in the next coupla days) that I shall post these on EvCentric!
Biblical proportions baby!
Delicious North Korean Cheese...

Hope you are registered with smart traveller.com.au so they can help you out if necessary. Good to hear that you are keeping up to date with the news on travel destinations.
Yep, Snakes on a Plane has got to be one of the lamest titles out. Doesn't leave much to the imagination and I reckon if you watch the trailers, you are probably seeing the 'best' (is that possible with this movie?) parts.
As for Gay Paree..... ;) Hope you get to see the City of Lights by night plenty of time. Should do knowing the hours you tend to keep as a rule.
Why don't you just email your biblical-proportions blog at least to your little mother? You can blog it later surely for posterity.
Remember that Jim Morrison T shirt of yours. Pity it got ditched or you could have worn it to his grave. Mind you, you will probably see so many others doing the same that it would look downright tacky. Hhmmmmm - just read up on what the grave site is like. Photos taken before the bust was stolen showed it, the bust, had been grafitted (such a word?) all over so it wasn't too special to look at. Now it's a pretty sad looking spot. But you can still say you've been there. :)
Happy camping kids.
