  • Hat's off to the guy that nabbed my wallet in front of the Moulin Rouge. It was packed so tightly in my purse, that I am truly amazed you got it without disturbing me in the slightest. Thank you for leaving my camera. Enjoy my money and the irreplacable pictures of my family. All I have to say is that you're very, very, very lucky I didn't see you...

    Don't carry a purse in Paris. I can't believe I did.

    The Prefecture de Police was kind enough to take my report and give me a statement stating my driver's license had been stolen.

     how sad about the pickpockets, I hope he bought something to eat and choked on it! the thief! I had an US friend who's bicycle got stolen there :-( he was heartbroken too. Still hope you have good memories of Paris.
