Bonne Nuit...

This country really isn't so bad when you get used to it. Sure the locals smell like cheese and hate Americans. Sure there are gypsies that call you "Ashhole" when you don't read their stupid signs. And yeah the streets are disgustingly dirty and reek of urine, but have you ever been to LA? It's really quite charming once you get used to it. The cabs are cheap, food is fresh and booze is plentiful. It's nice to look around and see stores and restaurants with real signs instead of neon glow worms for giant corporations. It's quaint. Like the people version of a nice florida swamp. (Smells about the same at least) All the buildings are beautifully adorned with hand carved angels and gargoyles and lions. My mouth waters just thinking about it. Like giant chickens with less feathers to cough up =D And the bums here have rabbits! How cool is that? I've already had three! (I tossed the bums a few euro so it was cool) I've got to say though, the Mona Lisa, BFD. Totally unimpressed. I saw a million other pieces of art that were way more inspiring. Those statues were amazing! The Louvre in general was pretty incredible. And Notre Dame was awesome too. Sadly the priests weren't too keen on Alligators in their church. Something about all the screaming children. Apparently they were fine before I got there. Whatever. But yeah. Great day but I'm spent. 10 miles a day on foot, rough stuff. My ass has road rash. (Quite literally. Stupid cobblestones.) Pictures will be up in the morning, I know you can't wait ;p Bonne nuit mes amis...
