Royal with Cheese

("Sitting on the grass permitted")

As Vincent Vega so wisely put it, in Europe it’s all about the little differences. During my time in Paris I have noticed a few things:

*The ketchup is a funky color
*Quality wine costs less then diet coke
*Nothing is open on Sunday
*Nudity is commonplace (unfortunately so is public urination)
*French keyboards make me tpye like thqas
*The American music is bad and about a year behind (Katy Perry anyone?)
*Parisians will line up for practically anything
*Sexuality is a fluid concept
*Apartments are smaller then American walk-in closets
*It's best not to talk to strangers on the metro, friendliness is considered creepy
*Only certain grass in the park is designated for sitting
*You can buy beer at McDonald (but NO, it does not come as a happy meal option, this isn't Germany after all)

Cheers!
