Why French Women Don't Get Fat

The real reason that French women don't get fat despite all the bread, cheese, chocolate, and crepes is the stairs. They are all over Paris. A trip to enjoy the view from Sacre Coure is like 20 minutes on the stairclimber. The Arc de Triumph, many of the Metro stations, and our hotel were the same. Of course, this does mean that you can eat mille feuille until your sick, so it's worth it. ;) Aside from the food, which is truly amazing; Paris is beautiful. The lights, the architecite, the language; they all combine to create a feeling that is palpable. It makes you feel happy, and inspired. It's not wonder that so many famous artist chose to make this city their home. We loved every second of our visit there. We spent hours walking up the Champs-Elysees enjoying the sights and the perfect weather. We saw, the Eiffel Tower, the Arc, the Louvre, Sacre Coure, the Moulin Roughe. We had lunch in Montmarte at a fabulous bistro, and at the end of the day we sat in our hotel room and watched the street below from our thrid story window. We were sorry to leave, but excited to see Amsterdam and some friendly faces in Alison and Tom. More to come...
