Tuesday, May 27, 2014. This morning I was in Paris . But what I most. Want to remember in my I was in Paris this morning. Dream is my French friend who spent frustrating hours of her vacation trying in vain to schedule a taxi for me; the many helpful security and hospitality personnel at train stations and the airport; and the friendly Americans on the plane who told their Paris horror stories with humor and c’est la vie. Yesterday I was in Paris. Labels: Charles De Gaulle Airport. Wednesday, May 21, 2014.
