bonjour from paris
today is the last full day of travel for me. funny because at the outset, it seemed like 5 weeks could never end. but this is a good place to finish. the wine is good and cheap, the streets are beautiful and clean, the people are rude and everything is expensive. ha, it really is everything people say it is. well i shouldnt say that, the people are sort of nice, sometimes. its an easy city to not do anything in. just walk or find a bench for the afternoon. a lazy city in a weird way. super efficient, but lazy. its strange, people only work 6 hours a day here, or thereabouts. when i arrived saturday morning, it seemed the city was closed until 10 or 11 in the morning. different than the excitement and hustle you see in philly at 5 in the morning. back to ireland though and the chance to sort through the many many photos. and this keyboard is a pain to work... more soon though

Please, please, please eat a croissant for me! With some wonderfully creamy French butter and preserves, too. :-) You know it always has to be a culinary experience for me...I can remember the smell of the patisseries in the mornings - what a heavenly smell. We've been so excited to read about your adventures - we cannot wait to see you in person to hear more tales, and to see the full array of pictures. Safe travels home. We love you! Christie, Markus, and Willabean
always talking about food...
