The Lonely Chair This is a nice little object here, yes? I think it’s hard to find things that stand by themselves in the middle of an area that is normally cluttered.The chair was found in one of the many decrepit and ghostly rooms inside that chateau I mentioned a few days ago. I tried to squeeze my way into every possible room, but some were too full of junk to get around. This one was well lit and ideal! - Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
I Love Paris
Sometimes the most fun things to buy are things you can't get on Amazon.  But that also means you have to carry the thing.  I have gotten a little spoiled by not-buying things in person.  Often times, I'll just scan the image with my phone and then have Amazon ship it right to my house so I don't have to carry the thing.  I know this is lazy, but it is also kind of cool.  But, then you are in little markets here and there and you see nice little custom-made things...  and that trick doesn't work any more...- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the entire entry at the Stuck in Customs blog.
The Light
La Sainte-Chapelle is really an amazing place.  I can't believe it took me so many trips to Paris to finally see it.  It wasn't exactly a blind-spot, but I knew it was some place that I had to visit at some point, and I finally got there.

Tripods were forbidden, so I decided to use a tripod to get a shot.  

I did manage to squeeze off several rounds until security came up to make me stop.  Of course, the only reason I ignore their rule is because I think it is does not have a solid foundation in logic or rational thought.  I wasn't bothering anyone.  I wasn't going to trip anyone because of the configuration of my tripod and body.  Everything was cool.

Flying in France
I remember when I was learning French at Jesuit.  I took four years of it, and one of the first things I saw was a little cartoon in a book.  It was two little French girls on a ride just like this.  One was saying to the other, "Aiiyeeeee!  Sylvie!  Tenez!!!!"  Anyway, I always think of that when I see little French children on a ride.  I feel like calling it out, but it always seems a little creepy for a stranger to say such a thing.
