xmas thief?
French Santa is heavy, can't climb, and that tiny sack... Gold Santa? Really, is there a label on it, too?
Paris - snow?
I can’t remember when it snowed last in Paris but I’m sure I have an earlier post from a bygone era.
This week, when it floods it snows!
New experience: this dad and son were throwing snowballs under the nose of Édith Piaf.
The kid got whacked by dad a little too hard. Gloves went flying and the poor garçon was crying, until dad hugged him and apologized.

Paris d'Accord
Does Donald Trump now works for Pittsburg, and not America? It seems that helping the world is beyond his pay grade.
As we all know, Paris wouldn't want him. It's a beautiful city, non?
Tranquille
Tonight you both rest tranquil together, because you could not rest without each other.
Bonne nuit, good night lovers again. We'll miss you.

1st stage of Instagram sickness?
at Musee D'Orsay, after viewing a few of those old time Impressionists. YAWN.... back to Instagram!
how the *ell did he get there?
seriously, I'm trying to frame the picture, and focus and be level, and expose the photo, and this dude just walks in the center of my frame, and is probably just checking out the cutesy girls iceskating in tights. What is wrong with you???? It's ok, I'll get over it.
All eyes on Charlie
Paris marches in honor and unity.

Paris est Charlie

another day of sadness
too close to home. My heart goes out to the victims' families of todays attack in Paris. The cornerstone of all truth is the ability to speak and be heard without someone silencing you. it's America's 1st Amendment for a reason.
wrath of la pool
if you've watched Star Trek 2, the Wrath of Khan, you know how I felt. I liken it to Kirk after Khan stole Genesis, and left Kirk stranded in the middle of a planet.
For my french speaking friends, this is what I read. : Le complexe aquatique sera fermé du 20 décembre 2014 au 04 janvier 2015 inclus, pour vidange des bassins et travaux d'entretien.
which means the pool is closed while you are here. You didn't look ahead and you also left your bike at home. Enjoy your holidays, dummy.
So, more eggnog please...
Bastille Day fireworks or le feu d’artifice du 14 juillet
