Spent a couple of hours posting at least six days of blogposts. Interesting what you remember or almost forget in such a short time.
Tried to go to the movies at Les Halles but couldn't find where to purchase the tickets in cash in time. Evidently most of the indy movies are subtitled in French rather than dubbed. It was interesting to listen to a spanish language Homer Simpson in Barcelona. Ross was watching some interesting stuff in Spain, cartoons, old sitcoms just to get a hit of "English" tv viewing. In Paris all we seem to find is BBC news and may be one more news channel in English. Early on I clicked through the 700-800 or so channels, basically if its a country, it has a channel except for the USA and maybe Canada.
We decided to split. Actually Ross is tired of Mom stopping every " five minutes or so" to take pictures. So I took a few photos in the area. Exciting clouds and gray skies.
I visited a small street fair in a square adjacent to Les Halles Forum, a massive shopping mall built on 4 levels, mostly underground. Les Halles is also a major Metro and RER station. The line for Security to check your bag prior to going down on the escalator gets quite backed up.
This is Rue Louis Ballein, our street after the rain.
