While trying to make up for his insipid post of last week, decrying a kids’ board book in a department store in Paris, at Christmas… today John offers some photos to show he actually did go inside the Louvre… for about 30 minutes.
He apparently did not see my favorite, the Musée d’Orsay (even though he had extra days there). He took in no street performances. He claims the 16th Arr. is the only place in Paris worth haunting — as it is home to almost all the far right factions, in Paris (western-most, on the map — and not surprisingly, suffering an about 30 per cent decrease in population over the last 50 years). What a provincial lil’ Dakota-bred gnome he is. Me? I prefer staying in the Fifth (when upscaling), or the Twelfth (when just bouncing in and out). [The Fifth is home to the Sorbonne University campus.]
All trivial, I know — but it does explain quite a bit about his inability to accept the jostling that all the rest of us… recognize as part of living in “the real world.”
My hunch is… he won’t see the Beyoncé “Renaissance” documentary either. But I did — with my adult daughter last night — it is… highly recommended!
Out.
