Bastille now
I was watching this show set in Venice...but for some reason, I had a flashback of my experience in Bastille, France. it's still in Paris. I remember that there was a demonstration on the streets of Bastille,french people opposing something about Macron is doing.
I I didn't really understand what it was. I did take some photos too, but the one thing I would not forget was how I was pushing thru the crowds. I came from Monoprix to get some groceries for the old lady (damn I miss her) and the people were all crowded by the side street. I was trying to go thru and I kept saying "scuse me" or"pardon" in French interchangebly. It was so uncomfortable, I was thinking to myself..these are one of the things I try to avoid in the US and here I am in the thick of it.
I remember hearing someone said also, "welcome to France!"..and I have not the slightest idea why that woman said that.
Ah Paris, I might be sick of you for the moment....but I will never forget you. Spock is there...maybe someday I'll move on. But also my other friends are there that I wanted to go to tours with. Although honestly, It's not Paris..it's all of Europe. No hate here ,just overwhelmed by all the experiences that Paris threw my way..lol
