My Exercise In Futility

I leave tomorrow morning for my final six weeks in Paris. For those of you that know me, I’m sure you’re aware of my disdain for Paris. It hasn’t been so much a disdain for Paris as it has been the fact that I just haven’t been home since July 2009. I’ve started to feel guilty about my constant complaining and that the opportunity to travel abroad has been wasted on my bitter self.

Therefore, I am deciding here and now to go back to Paris with a renewed sense of exploration and wonder. I would like for my readers to suggest and tell me things to visit while I am in Paris. I am then going to visit each place suggested and take pictures and try to learn a little something about the beautiful city that I am in. I have six more weeks there and I want to make the most of them, and I want to have fun doing it.

I am definitely going to visit Euro Disney one weekend. Please leave a comment or suggestion of other sites I should visit. Help me explore the parts of Paris I should be able to talk about when I return home to the States. I promise to take pictures and post an entry about my experience at the sites I visit upon the readers’ suggestions.

Help me make my last six weeks in Paris memorable and worthy of the time I will spend there. Leave comments…

Overall, this week has been pretty good. There might be one or two things I would change about work, but that’s always the case. I left Wolfsburg this weekend and headed for Berlin. I attended the HustlaBall. Of all the times not to have a still or movie camera handy! But, I honestly didn’t think I would have been allowed to bring one in to the event. Boy was I wrong! It’s all for the best. I would have had to password protect those entries!

Instead I thought I might interest all of you in a small tour of Berlin. I took some footage using my Flip Camera while on the Berlin Bus Tour. I uploaded the video and edited it with iMovie on my MacBook. It was a very quick edit, so one or two of the segments may seem ‘long’ in terms of the building or scenery I am showing. Come on, give me a break! It’s my first ‘tour’ video. Anyway – enjoy! Leave comments!
