The End

My stay in Paris has ended so I'm back home in Los Angeles for the time being.
From now on I'll be using my other blog, A Jolly Good Time

Le Printemps





It's been great to watch Paris come to life this past month

La Guerre







I saw Johnny Flynn play a couple of nights ago. He switched between the mandolin, trumpet, violin, banjo, and both acoustic and electric guitars all in the same set. Needless to say, I loved every minute of it.

Saint-Denis





Today I visited Saint-Denis Basilica where the majority of France's most important historical figures are buried. The 4th photo shows the graves of Louise de Lorraine, Louis VII, Marie-Antoinette, Louis XVI, and Louis XVIII. The following photo is the shriveled heart (yes, the HEART) of Louis XVII.

The 1st is a couple out of about a million bikes I admire every day on my way into town.

So I was actually supposed to fly home today but since all the airports in Northern Europe are closed because of the raging volcano in Iceland I will be here for an indefinite amount of time. Since it's going to be be at least another week I might as well make the most of it, right? ....Southern France or Germany anyone?
