Courtesan in Paris

And then sometimes life is good.

But then you don't have anything to complain about in your LJ.

Had a lovely - albeit cold - afternoon yesterday, walking around in historical Paris and taking pictures (that I'll show later since I'm not using a digital camera and need to finish the film and get them developped first...).
I love this town. It makes me feel joyful just to walk around in it and find its hidden treasures.

I know it's sales over here, but I never thought you could get one for so cheap.




A courtesan for 4.50 Euros...

Actually it's the name of a tea.

I sat down in a salon de thé in the Palais Royal because it was cold and I had time to waste before going to get my previous set of pictures back from the photo office. I intended to have a hot chocolate, but I saw they served this tead "Courtisane" and it looked yummy (citrus fruits and red ones), and it was funny.

I didn't think the bill would come out this way, though, and it's even better.

I haven't seen all of them, but so far it ranks as :
1) Paris
2) San Francisco
3) London

well, at least for all the cities i have been to. and i can tell you that paris struck me like no other city had. and i remembered thinking, when i boarded the plane back to singapore from paris, will i ever find another city that is worth measuring against paris?

you are one lucky lady!

About this, yes, I know :)

BTW, about your post about the Changeling, I think that painting of Endymion is at the Louvre, I pretty sure I saw it there.

You make me jealous. All I have to offer is a smoggy city and rude people.

Oh, people are usually pretty rude here too. Especially in shops, which I find very unprofessional.
But *shrug* sometimes it's okay. And the town loves to be loved. It just feels alive sometimes.
