I have come to realize that all big city's offer much of the same, only a different back drop. Paris is so very lovely and so very overpriced. Thanks Remko for the advice; I found a Marche and have been feeding on fruit and bread and cheese - the pastries do not appeal to me at all, oh and I went into McDonalds because I had to see - yup they offer French Pastry there as well - you can pay double for really bad food as well.
I am in for a steak dinner when I return to Canada so if anyone wants to buy (or cook) me dinner - I am so there. Me who LOVES bread is actually tired of it; yup, I don't care if I see bread for a while now. The fruit is quite tasty here and salads; well they are virtually non-existent (I think I may have said that already somewhere.
I went to a Castle today and it was not the one that I had hoped to go to; however it was nice, I ate my packed lunch on the grass overlooking Paris - it was the best view and the cheapest price.
I have discovered how everyone stays so thin in Paris - they all smoke (yuck) and there are freakin' stairs EVERYWHERE!!! - I have 100 stairs to climb to get to my room and there is no view - and everywhere I go there are stairs up and then you have to go down to travel a tunnel to climb up again to get to where you want to be; I don't feel so bad for not going to the gym.
I have booked my flight to Edinburgh - I leave on the 11th and will be there for four nights. I haven't heard from Amanda since I was in England, so I hope I hear from her while I am there. To use the phone in Paris costs a fortune and we think Alberta is expensive!
Miss everyone - Les thanks for the comments, you ROCK - it is nice to hear from home.
More to come from Tina The Temp - tomorrow :o)
