Ooh La La

Ok, so the title doesn't follow my theme...but it's relevant to the contents of this post. So there. Lately, I've been listening to lots of Goldfrapp. I love music like this. I keep wondering what kind of music I'd be making if I had followed that dream of becoming a professional singer...Oh my god, too many "what ifs" can really mess with your head. Anyway, two of my favorite songs/videos are Ooh La La and Human. (Warning: that last one *could* be considered offensive to some) Speaking of Ooh La La, here are some pics from my Paris trip. Day One. I got into my hotel around 4pm. I put my bags in my room and went out immediately, armed with a bottle of water, a map, and a growling belly. I didn't eat a thing on the plane. I don't like the food on AirFrance. Place de la Madeleine: A closer look at the pediment (one of the few things I actually learned in college, thank you Art History 101). I love how the leaves from the tree I was standing underneath coincidentally touch the top of the triangle. Neat how that happened. This next pic isn't that great. I was still messing around with the camera, trying to see what worked best. The famous Maille! I ate some dinner on a little street near Maille. Then I popped into Fauchon for some goodies. I didn't take many photos after that. I just walked around in the direction of my hotel, meandering and getting a feel for the city, until my bags got too heavy. More pics later. I'll leave you with a link to a racy (for some) music video. No, it's not French. It's Italian. But it's very very sexy. Meet Paola and Chiara, singing Kamasutra. Ooh la la!
