A day trip to Paris...
So as I have now lived in Paris for a total of fifteen months let's do a recap on this great city. (For great read pathetic attempt at and excuse for a capital city).
What have I learned so far?
As in what about the city could I tell someone who had never been before they must see?
Erm...Cemetiere Pere Lachaise or Montmartre....or any cemetry.
and...
vintage shops
and...
The Shakespeare and Co bookshop (a must)
and...
and...
and...
erm...
oooh...
Let me think...
erm...
Well...
There's always...
Museums...
That tall metal thing...
Notre Dame...although I've never seen a hunchback which would have made Notre Dame really worth while...
Streets that look exactly the same...street after street...
Grey buildings...
Soft porn, in the form of every single couple you see...
Prostitutes, the old and ugly kind favoured by Wayne Rooney...
Women (for women read one woman...a prostitute) squatting in the middle of the street...
Men who piss wherever they stand...
Perverts...
Oooh, racism...that's really easy to see here...wear a Burqa just for a laugh, the locals will love you...
Churches, they are genuinely beautiful in Paris...
and then, well, there's cafe's...they're not pubs but they are all you have so deal with it...
What else?
erm...
John Galliano losing his mind? It's no Charlie Sheen but still...
A river...
Erm...
yeah...
there's loads...
loads to see and do...
A few hours should do it, it's probably a whole days worth of stuff to see...probably. Then again you could just find a cafe near Gard Du Nord and see almost all the sites mentioned above and then go home again.
