Paris and other exploits  
So I'm back from Paris, which was largely a great trip and a great success, aside from getting wet to the bone and riding the most horrendous buses in the history of buses- My back my never recover.

In any case, we saw Saint Chapell, The Louvre, Versailles and lots of the Fete de la Musique and The Jazzers rocked especially. I loved them so. We spent a lot of time walking, in french bistros and getting it on by strange men (do you want to learn french?). Most of the stuff that was said, I did not understand. My french is rather bad and just enough to order food and by Metro tickets and on occasion, ask for the toilett. Maybe I should ask Joe F. to teach me.*g*

Also, for some bus travel company quoting. "There are eatable fish in the Seine. The can be fished and eaten, so do not pee into the Seine."

Anyways, here are a few impressions :

Louvre






Versailles





Yesterday, we displayed the strangest weather, which sort of lead to those shots (the guy in the car took pics as well ;)







Last but not least, I preordered A Dog's Breakfast on www.Amazon.com. You should do the same *g*
It's David Hewlett's movie, which I for one loved a lot.

Also, there is a quite lovley interview with Joe F. here with him looking all scruffy. Not spoilery for season 4 I think.

ps: thsoe are not the special pics from the "Toycamera". Those are of the few I took with my digicam.

Yay, welcome back! Seems like you had fun :)
I could teach you french, if you teach me German. ;)
Man, I studied German for 8 years and I can't make a proper sentence, lol.
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on June 27th, 2007 08:56 am (UTC)
I did.... and rofl... I think I might be too lazy for that *giggles*

Maybe once I feel more motivated... which reminds me..

I studied french for like...4 years maybe? I can do simply things *grins* Very simpel things.

Je suis fatigue.

Glad you had a good trip hon!
Lovely pictures...I so wish to see some of these places in my lifetime, but chances of that ever happening are slim! So, I'm glad you documented your trip!
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on June 27th, 2007 09:06 am (UTC)
Well, you never know all the chances you get ;)
[identity profile] memoryfloodsin.livejournal.com on June 26th, 2007 01:03 pm (UTC)
Glad you had a good time! I'm still not sure what to make of Paris. I mean it's amazing, but then it's not as 'magical' as everyone makes it out to be. I dunno!

I wish I had a multi region DVD player, I want ADB sooo bad! Have you seen David's blog post about how annoyed he is that it's available for download without telling him and that it's not available for anywhere outside North America. He does not sound impressed.
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on June 27th, 2007 09:18 am (UTC)
mmm...I think it always depends onthe modd and stuff.... because I've seen many different sides of paris, some magical, some not so much but it always depends on what you look for in a city.

and can't you not watch the dvd on you computer? And use DVD region Free?

And yeah....but I think he sorted it out now.

Welcome back, those pics are beautiful!
I really want to see A Dong's Breakfast, but I have to wait for the Region 4 DVD to come out, which will take probably forever :/
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on June 27th, 2007 09:19 am (UTC)
thanks!! I hope the holga ones will be better though.

Anbd I mentioned it to nigthfive. Computer..and use DVD region Free. It does work!

Pretty! I'm looking forward to visiting Paris one day soon. And you know, I'd never really stopped to think about Joe speaking French before. As soon as you mentioned it, all the blood drained out of my head, and I lost my breath for a little while. :)
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on June 26th, 2007 09:09 pm (UTC)
Maybe I just thin too much about him period ;) And I read it in an interview..or a report? He studied in France, so he should know a bit. *grins*

and you totally should!!

Toll, dass Du so viel Spaß in Paris hattest. Und: Wilkommen zurück!

Cool, dass "A Dog's Breakfast" auf DVD rauskommt. Ich habe mein DVD-Budget in letzter Zeit ein wenig ausgereizt, aber bestellen werde ich ihn auf jeden Fall noch. Vielleicht können wir den Film bei einem Videoabend anschauen; ich weiß, dass [livejournal.com profile] mordio ihn jedenfalls auch gern mal sehen wollte, nachdem er den Trailer geschaut hat.

Übrigens, wie wäre es mit einem Treffen demnächst? Vielleicht diesen Samstag, um mal spontan zu sein.
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on June 26th, 2007 09:06 pm (UTC)
Danke sehr....!!
Und ADB kommt erst im September oder so...hast also Zeit *g*

und klar..bin immer für nen Videoabend zu haben.

Welcome back! Sounds like you had a great time. Can't wait to see your Holga pictures. And Joe speaks French? I just watched the interview and there's so much i didn't know about him. But i think that's a good thing? :P
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on June 27th, 2007 09:37 am (UTC)
thanks... I hope the pics will be done soon because I'm way too giddy!!

And he spent a year or more studiying in Paris. And hey, it is..it keeps the mysterie alive!!
