I was flipping through blogs and stumbled upon Ginger's blog on travel and I must say its so apt. I forgot to share my Parisian experience. Too much was going on. Anyway, It occurred to me that I have been to some of the most interesting places and I had never been to Paris. I went to Calais, France once but never made it to Paris. Who goes to France and not Paris? Well.... That's a story for another day.
So while I was training in London. I took advantage of the Eurostar and my almost expired Schengen visa. As the culinary capital of the world, I had to see for myself. The food and dining experience was exquisite. The French hospitality is legendary for being AWFUL. It is the cesspit of hoity-toity(ness). For the life of me, I cannot understand how people so vile can produce such amazing food. Anyway enjoy the photos.
I hope you enjoyed the pictures?. Having said that, I would never attempt Paris on my own again. I would definitely want to experience it with someone special....or at least someone I can whine about the French with. All in all, I am not in a hurry to go back to Paris.

Surly waiters, delicious food; this french people really vexed you but you gotta admit that if you come from a city that is as globally renowned as Paris (see Paris and die etc etc) you might be hoity toity lol.
p.s. had to google macarons. Thot it was the pasta variety.

Every country with their idiosyncrasies. I'd love to visit France. Paris, South of France and even enter Monaco. Sigh...
Traveling alone is for the adventurous :) but yeah, it's always nice to share experiences with loved ones.
