she got it from her mama

So, we have finally made it to Paris (yay!). The last couple of days in Troyes were awesome; we got to have lunch (read: champagne and hors d'oeuvres) with the governor of the region of which Troyes is the capital. Yea, we roll with the big dogs.

Today we hiked up the LARGE hill to the Sacre Coeur and looked over Paris. Even though I couldn't find the Eiffel Tower. I'm sure it's around here somewhere. Then we walked around down to the Moulin Rouge, and possibly saw Nicholas Thorel darting down into a Metro stop...We also spotted some porn shops (Supermarches d'Eroticisme), but didn't have time to go in.

The buildings here are sooooo gorgeous. I love all of the plants that people have on the balconies, and how the streets aren't cluttered with overhead stoplights, and the street signs are flat against the buildings. It's so different, and by that I mean AMAZING.

I've also discovered the French secret for staying skinny. Walk around hills all day. That should do it. Tonight - discotheque with our friends from Troyes. I'll report back after researching the French guys at the club...
