Without a doubt, I would live here in the blink of an eye.
Paris (IMO) is the most beautiful city in the world - in my 'extensive' experience ! hehe
It is just so easy here ... and whoever it was that started the rumour that the French are rude and arrogant really needs to reassess their opinion. I am sure there are people here who fit that description but then there are the same to be found in any country in the world - I am from Australia remember so I know a ignorant pig when I encounter one.
In the time here so far we have only ever been treated with the utmost courtesy and graciousness - except for the shonky locksmith who tried to rip us off but that's another story - and we had already been forewarned about it.
There has really only been one really full on day so far - the rest of the time has been pretty mellow which was always the intention. Lots of good food and good wine ( good vino here is often cheaper than a bottle of coke).
More of a description to come tomorrow - with lots of pics as well ...... when I bought the new camera in HK I was offered a GPS system to go with the camera which would tell me exactly where the pic was taken - in hindsight I probably should have bought it. Aside from the obvious photo opportunites, I love taking photos of 'street scenes' - just the day to day life. The problem is, by the time I get around to doing anything with the photos I have no idea where most of them were actually taken. I will however have a good attempt at this tomorrow and post accordingly :-)
Until then - faites attention et appréciez la vie ! (Take care and appreciate life - translation is not necessarily literal :-D )
