  • Twice I saw a homeless person peeing into a phone box. My advice - try not to use a public payphone unless you have to - wait until you are at your accommodation, or use one at a museum or tourist attraction.

     Around Sacre Coeur huh? You should really check out the back of the Montmartre-hill than! And the cemetary there is pretty too!

     Paris : I think we have the same sense to take pictures, The Eiffel tower from Rue BsAs, the pic under the tower itself Greetz from Belgium

     Glad you had such a great time in Paris. So did I (but I didn't take the tour bus, LOL). I haven't read the Da Vinci Code yet, but two of the students in my English Conversation class have read it in English and one of them just lent me the book
