57. Canadian Cuties
Before my parents, I had a pair of oh-la-la visitors. I would like you to meet Verlane and Jude.
I don't have very much to say about their trip -- they were passing through on their way to Italy, and just spending a bit of time at my place in Paris while they had the chance. Unfortunately (for me), I was away in Washington for most of their visit (as you can see by my frequent and regular business voyages, I am an important and valued peon in the corporate randomcracy).
But we did spend one day together before my parents arrived.
It was fun. Jude visited the automatic toilet.
And we went up to Montmartre.
We picnicked on the slopes in front of Sacre Coeur. We had a big tetra-pak of Sangria. It was delicious.
The sun was out.
And I took a picture of our feet to remember us always. I use this picture (in the high resolution) as my computer wallpaper at work. I like it because it reminds me of man's ability to have feet.
I ate Ice Cream. They didn't have my favourite (cinnamon) so I think I had some sort of hazelnut pistachio. I don't really remember.
Verlane had something fruity.
And we walked down by the Seine where everything was glowing and beautiful.
Including the glowing and beautiful Verlane and Jude.
We watched Salsa dancers for a while.
They were enjoyable.
Then we fought each other for pastries.
The pastries won.
Let's hear it for Verlane and Jude!
