Mon ami, mon ami....it n'est pas aussi fascinant que vous pouvez penser, bien que je ne nie pas les avantages. Les hôtels vieillissent, la tour d'Eiffel perd son lustre, il devient vieux chapeau. L'Espagne ne perd jamais son lustre, les hommes sont simplement étonnante, je souhaitent que je pourrais être resté là les tapas de manger de semaine et flirter avec Juan, hélas Paris appelé de même que Versailles et moi pour avoir des images à montrer. Mais mon endroit préféré à visiter sera toujours quelque part je peut se rattraper par rapport à la cohorte dans le crime des jours d'université allés près.
On the front of Versailles there is a large engravement that says (rough gist from memory) Toutes la glories de la France. HA! We had to bail these ungrateful bastards out twice! If it weren't for Americans, they would be speaking German! Half kidding aside, Versailles is breathtaking. The gardens were spectacular. I got to see a side of Paris I hadn't before and I actually liked it. Alright, I do enjoy downtown Paris too, and I do love the Tower Eiffel even if I can't spell it worth a damn, too many vowels for the dyslexic in me. Most people stayed on the main areas of the gardens, but when you got off the beaten path was when you found the really beautiful stuff such as Le Jardin De Roi. I have lots of pictures to post once I get back. My next trip back to Paris, I have one thing left that I haven't seen that I really do wish to tour and that is the Musee D'Orsay. It is where all the impressionist art is displayed lots and lots of Monet! A few less breasts than the Louvre. I'm on a plane home though in four hours...YIPPEE!!! I don't actually get home until Saturday night though after class.
I'm off to shower, get packed up and hit the tarmack! They have a very cool display at the airport of the concorde, at night it is lit up so that it looks like it is taking off, afterburners lit up -- very cool!
This trip has changed me a little, perhaps a lot. Not sure, will see when I return home, but I'm different...priorities have changed, I had a couple of nights without internet - I realized how much I missed contact with my friends from school and staying in touch with Aileen. There are some time wasters in my life that lost their priority through the week.
