Paris

I landed at 8 am, climbed L’Arc de Triomphe for free, ate La Durée macarons and drank wine in La Jardin de Luxembourg, spotted Jack Nicholson in Saint Germain, had cheese and egg crepes, drank espresso and smoked in a cafe along Rue Saint-Michel, and ate onion soup at 9 pm in Nation, all with two fantastic friends along for the ride.

what. is this real.

Leaving for Paris tomorrow
