06/05/2004 Entry: "from Paris"
So I finally figured out how to log from here. I had forgotten the user name for the blog. Paris is wonderful, we are having a great time. We have already been to the Notre Dame, the louvre, musee d'orsay, champs elysee, arc d'triumph. Our hotel is right by the sacre couer which is a beautiful area that looks exactly like a description of Paris might in a book. Me and Jeannie saw the third Harry potter movie yesterday. It was sold sold out and the line went around the block. It was really freaking good. Way better than the first two movies. It was directed by Cuaron. The same director of "Y tu Mama Tambien". I know thats what I thought. What is he doing directing Harry Potter? It was the best thing that could have happened. He is a Genius. It was soo dark. It comes very close to giving the feeling of the book although it leaves a lot out, but what movie adaptation doesn't. We also had pizza yesterday. They cracked a raw egg on top of it. It was kind of gross beacuse the egg is not really supposed to be cooked by the time you eat it. Its just supposed to be like a liquid sauce on top of the pizza. Otherwise everything is great. We are going to the palace at Versaille today. Our feet are tired from all the freaking steps, there are hardly any escalators or elevators. No wonder people here are so thin. I am of average size here.
The metro is the best. There is a train every two minutes. no kidding. two minutes.
After midnight we had to wait seven. boohoo.
The president followed us here. Everyone here is pissed that he is coming, frankly so am I. Can't get a vacation from stupidity.
I'll write again soon
Au revoir.

Cuaron directed A Little Princess, a delightful children's movie that was a book as well. It also has a few dark undertones. Totally worth watching, even at your age.
