Don't lose your head, Augustus! We wouldn't want anyone to lose that.

Voilà, I'm in Paris.

My flights were long and complicated, it was not a pleasant trip here. Beginning in Denver, my flight to Chicago - where I was supposed to meet the rest of the group - was delayed 3 hours. Having missed that flight in O'Hare, I had to wait in 2-hour long customer service lines to find an alternative route to Paris. I ended up going to London, where I missed my next flight to Paris because again the plane was late. Finally I got to Paris, tired and frustrated. Yet I'm here, luggage elsewhere - c'est la vie!

Long story short: if I were to believe in hell, it would be air travel. If I were to believe in Satan, it would be United Airlines.

Despite travel, what else have I done? (Asks the statue below.)


Well, today I visited the Musée du Cluny, the national museum of the Middle Ages. Amidst all the relics of weapons, dishes, jewelry, stained glass vitrines, pillars, chairs, paintings, and tapestries, I especially enjoyed the sculptures. They have character, such as this guy with the buck teeth!


I also found that even before the guillotine, people lost their heads in the Môyen Age.


Luckily they were able to find them.


Très bien.
