P A R I S, France
Paris; stopped there for a few days enroute from Africa, and stayed at The Marriot in Paris; It was cold, and I walked through the park and one has to be on the lookout for swindlers. I sensed someone was following me and looked around, and yes, a young guy was following, Soo I started to walk really fast, he was catching up, so I started to jog, and then run as fast as I could to the Eiffel Tower which was lit up and breathed a sigh of relief, as he vanished when I looked back - low and behold, I outran him - quite a scare.
Then visited the Eiffel Tower which was awesome, I ate the Parisian crepes and loved it. Took a cruise along the river; Next day I visited The Louvre Museum, which is the world's most-visited place, also a historic landmark in Paris. It has best-known works of art, including the Mona Lisa and the Venus de Milo which I was able to see ( a long line to see the Mona Lisa.
Toulouse-Lautrec, who admired the French Cancan dancers was famous for his artworks depicting the life of this Parisian cabaret - I took this pic. inside the Moulin Rouge - prob. the best show I've ever seen!
