  • Several times I was warned to stand behind the yellow line in Le Metro, or I might be pushed onto the tracks.

    Finally I asked, "Why would anyone want to push me onto the tracks?"

    "To get your purse." Was the reply.

    "Well," I said, "If I’m going, my purse is going with me."

    I did, however, stand behind the line and was never pushed into the tracks.

     Paris, I am sorry other countries, is really the capital of Europe! :) They really deserve this title!;)
