French-American Collaboration

girl where'd you get that body from?

So I do not really have the time to post a long blog because the concierge at the hotel is kind of strict about the public computer. The trip so far has been amazing and we are now partying it up in Paris. I must admit that I feel like I was just here, so I am not as excited about the Eiffel Tower and Arc de Triomphe as the others, but it feels good to be back in Paris. I feel at home here, like I was perhaps born in the wrong city. Everything essential here is to my taste: I love the style, the pace, the metro, the cafés. The city has a sense of vibrance that I don't think you can find anywhere else in the world.

Yesterday we went to Montmatre and I got lost again in the Marais district, but knew the area well enough to get back to the hotel. Today we all went on the bateau-mouche boats that tour the Seine and followed it by shopping on Boulevard Haussman and the Champs-Elysées. I am going to meet up with the UTT kids now for dinner and a drink. I believe we will be going to the Louvre tomorrow, but they have to go back, so this is the last time we will see them. I will write when I get back to the US, but for now I want to enjoy the city.

    I have to admit that I'm more than a bit jealous that you know Paris well enough to feel at home... the only city I know well enough to call home is boring old Columbia :)
