paris

Paris is an amazing place. Duh. The people were FINE, if you're not too much of a jackass american tourst (here's a tip: dont walk up to anyone with a harley tshirt and ask "UMMMM, DO YOU SPEAK ENGLISH? ). It ranks as one of my favorite places we visited. It really looks and feels like someone built a city in a giant park, or vice versa. we have green places in cities here, but nothing like paris. The people here really have the whole quality of life ratio pegged. The patisserie's, brasserie's (a cafe/bar/restaurant) are just so rad. the metro and the scenery makes ita a great place to just wander around. I got in at 3pm 6.30 and met G at the airport. We checked in, ate and saw the sacre coeur at night with an amazing view of paris at night. Day 2 was a tourist whirlwind. Day 3 was more chill with the louvre and wandering. we left 7.3 for San Sebastian, Spain. i could have spent a lot more time in paris.
