3. …my favorite phallic symbol

5. View from the Eiffel Tower at sunset

6. Rodin Museum My attempt at arty black and white 

7. French humor – not too subtle. This ad was all over town. It translates: From now on, pleasure is no longer a question of size. (New Mars Little Mouthfuls) I’m not sure how appealing it is to compare candy to small penises, but it got my attention.

8. Those French love their chiens. Here’s the dog store I told you about, with beds, toys, and Peter Rabbit companions. The motocrottes (shitmobiles) hose off the sidewalks every day. There’s a fun job.

9. Identical twin dogs seem to be popular.

10. How French.

12. Rousseau has the most interesting tomb in the crypt of the Pantheon. See the hand sticking out?

13. OK, it was worth all those steps.

14. View from our hotel window in Paris. Next door to the Theatre de l’Odeon …

15. …and the view from our hotel window in London.

16. A much better view from the Eye.

17. Picadilly Circus – right before I ran into a store to buy a jacket.

19. Definitely the best thing in London.

22. Never overestimate a tourist’s intelligence.
