O.k. O.k., I have regrouped and I think I am ooookay now.During the day Paris is great place to visit. I saw the three things I wanted to see which were The Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame and the Louvre. I took the tour through the city I must admit Paris is beautiful city like Pam Grier, ageless and seems to be more beautiful as time passes. But at night— I was blown away with the look and feel of Nighttime Paris.It’s like being in Las Vegas without the “no clocks on the wall” gambling and having call girls trying to hit you up for some of jackpot after you went all in 2 and 6 suited and get called the other guys goes all in and he is sitting there with pocket Kings, you get a 7, 4 , 3 on the flop, the turn is K and the river is your 5, nahh girl you gets none of this, with them Lego constructed by products out my face—-Whew, I mean not that I know anything about. Honey!But back to the night life and the possible hot grits situation…Paris is breathtaking at night especially on the Champ de Elysees. It is one of the most recognizable avenues in Paris. Imagine Christmas all the time, The avenue was lit up, I was standing in the middle of the street trying to get a picture to show how far the Ave was lit up…amazing. I can not truly describe how amazing it is at night. The first few days we stayed a 5 minute walk from The Champ de Elysees. This is also were I saw many homeless as well but moving on the avenue is hoping. Every store you can think of seems to have a place there, you got Hugo Boss, You got Vutton, you got Cartier, and I can go on and on. The Champ de Elysees also affectionately call “The Ave” by yours truly seemed to bursting at the seams with people. Think how Black College Reunion weekend use to be in Daytona before the hotel price gouging, the closing of the most accessible bridges to the beach, making everyone drive all the way up to Ormond Beach to get on A1A just to drive back to Daytona…The Thursday night I was in Paris was like BCR 92, now imagine that 3 times as many people and 4 times more pomp and circumstance…I know, I need to post some pics up, they are comingI will have to break down later all the places I visited on my night time strollAu revoir
