The color red was on everybody’s mind. The sheets, the curtains, the wine. Our first day in Parie was…well…a wonderful mess. We all got lost, but found that the people of this city had done things right for hundreds of years.
In America we often hear the French are rude and out of line, but in Paris how they live their life is something sublime. For instance the Metro makes the CTA look like a 3rd world train wreck.
I also realized that French news has a much larger worldview then any American news show I have ever watched. It made me so happy to walk off the plane and see what was happening in Africa when waiting in the surprisingly fast customs line.
There was only one thing I would change about France…. McDonald’s, Subway, and Starbucks………..
