<< First Day in Paris
As we wandered up the Champs-Élysées, I could see that Barb and Lynn, while enjoying themselves, were wondering what all the fuss over Paris was all about. I was a little worried, because Barb's dream was Paris, and she has loved it from afar for... well, ever, I think. And all that was running through my head was "Please, please love Paris..."
Remember, up to this point, they had seen the airport, the side of the city facing the train (which seems to be the same in every city and town - graffiti artists are incredibly talented at gaining access to places they should never be), been semi-abandoned in a train station where they didn't speak the language, and now we were walking up one of the most famous streets in Paris, and really, it was just a bunch of people out shopping in a high-class area.
And then we saw the Arc de Triomphe.

And then two more people fell in love with Paris.
