A Conversation for Things to do in Paris, France
Hi from a Parisian !
n'alf Started conversation Mar 20, 2001
Be careful of you say about Paris, I'm here watching !
I've got just some little things to say ... it's not "bois de bologne" but "bois de boulogne" (Bologne is a city in Italy ... Boulogne is a city near Paris), and Mona Lisa is called "La Joconde" (not Jaconde, lol), it's the French for "Gioconda".
When I read that metro is "reliable" and "on time", I guess the one who wrote that doesn't live in Paris, and doesn't have to take it everay morning !! You can never trust the metro : there is always one line that doesn't work, or something like that.
And those who criticize the way French people drive, please go one week to Roma (Italy), you'll see we French are not the worst !
I could have a lot to say about Paris (in fact, I know Parisian schools very well, I'll talk with you about that later), but I keep it for the next time ....

Well, I just wanted to know what you're talking about? Hellish driving in Paris or Rome??? I have the idea people saying that haven't seen much of the world. If you like it close, for Europeans that is, go to Athens. Nice drivers over there, especially the taxis.
And if you have some spare time, go to Bangkok, then you'll know what traffic is... Driving in Paris or in Bangkok is really as much different as a mouse and an elephant or so. One more detail about traffic in Bangkok: Bicycles are NOT allowed in the "centre" of the city, and with centre i mean 20 Km diameter or so.... The reason it's not allowed: You'd be dead in a few days.
Anyway, greets from trafficland
