Day 25: Paris!!!

Yes guys, can you imagine? Myself in France!!!
The truth is that, since I started this trip many thoughts came across my mind. Probably because I struggle with the idea of returning and "settle" down...So here we are, in Paris, the recalled capital of many things, among them culture, love and all those cliches...It is well known that I am not very keen on certain places, but that is why travelling is such a powerful medicine: keeps you away from prejudices, heals hurts, opens your mind, and foremost, creates you addictions (some new, others....)

A day in here was worth it, lots of foreigners, coming from every possible country, "street salesmen" offering you a wide range of clothing, shoes...It really reminded me, in some cases, to Spain....Evil or good, I won't be the judge, see by yourselves...

My first steps were taken in a street where the main shopping activity was Wedding apparel like suits and so on...Ready to take the final step?? Let me think, Not at all, thanks a lot!!!!

Worldwide landmarks: Arc de Triumph, Eiffel Tower (quite impressed With the size of it, way bigger than the Statue of Liberty in N.Y, Sacre Coeur...Not too bad for a day....My poor and rusty French is going to take me nowhere here,but I do try....

As the hours passed by, I knew I had to eat, but never found the right place...Too warm, still walking, brain sending the info, stop:drink and eat...I do not process it, I keep on walking....A Brie baguette, does it sounds French enough? I recalled of some of my beloved "Floridians", Friday nights dinner: Cheese and Cider (Rosa), Avocado and Cheese (Jeff)...

I am probably too tired, but big cities are quite outdemanding, I am much more confortable close to the shore where the two colours (in many ocassions just in my mind)meet and the harmony becomes absolute hapinness...

More sightseing expected for tomorrow: Louvre Museum, Notre Dame, once again following the masses.."I miss the comfort in being sad"..It's so relieving now that you're leaving"...

The time waits for no one...Cronos has said his last word...you'll have to come back, nothing will ever be the same...Really love is fine...

Bonne nuit mes amies..
