I could possibly be Parisian!

The trip to Paris was fantastic!!!! Wow! I walked around on Saturday in a state of sheer marvel and bliss. Well, except for when I was walking around feeling slightly too full of crepes and coffee - of some sort. We really couldn't figure out the coffee - sometimes ordering coffee would get us cafe au lait, sometimes we'd get espresso, sometimes we'd get coffee with milk on the side and it goes on. Despite out best french, there didn't seem to be any regularity between coffee varieties wherever we went. Not that we minded though - getting an unexpected variety of cafe in Paris is simply grand! I practised my french as much as I could. However, when the waiters figured out we spoke English, they'd usually switch for us - we really had to convince some to let us practice! They were all quite lovely though. Apparently we were too, because one left us with his phone number. Not that we called it though - we've heard about those Frenchmen!

I'll be sure to post pictures once I figure out how - oh, so many stories to tell!
