  • 4" inch heel advise again to those brave souls like myself... be careful of slippery, sloping sidewalks especially on the Champes Elysses. I had the embarrassing pleasure of wiping out and falling flat on my back as i step down into the street.

  • I found that if you just avoid eye contact and refrain from speaking (don't say No Thanks, you bozo, then they'll know for sure you're a tourist!) that you can escape the beggars. Don't let them pass you a piece of paper for you to read... it's just a note written in English asking for your kind donation.

     Loved your pix! I just got back from 9 mths in Paris & logged more hrs than anyone at Le Galway - Charlie would not disagree. Became good bud's with Thomas, Yuri (your Italian singer)and 5 others in your Highlander shot - great people. I Love that bar!!

     Ciao! Great Paris-page! Really want to get back there too... :) You really liked it when the dog was running around freely in the restaurant? /Henrik
