Photos from Paris, France, Unloaded From Camera February 5, 2004 (February 5, 2004)
(Click on any of the thumbnails below to view the full-sized photo.)
These are photos of cat food from the small store near the train station. The owner of the store looked at me like I was a nut case, and made a [presumably snide] comment in French. My response was "Tourist, no French", which sent him packing. I like the way they have digitally altered the cat's face--kind of cute.
Photos from near the Cergy-St. Christophe train station.
The bakery near the train station. Since I speak no French and the bakery employees speak no English, we kind of worked out a system. I point to what I want, signal quantity with fingers, and hold out a handful of Euro coins so they can take what they want. The system seemed to amuse the other customers, but it worked.
For 0€80, I could get a big loaf of bread. Look at the size of that thing! You'd think it was a sword!
Photos at the Cergy-St. Christophe RER station. Today's destination will be The Real McCoy Company, which specializes in American foods. I need Oreo cookies!
A cute senior citizen discount poster at the station.
The station itself, and maps ...
Today's destination is St. Lazare. I can't remember why we're going there.
A cool poster on the train advising one that you've gotta buy tickets for the train.
The inside of RoboToilet, plus other pictures. These devices were my favorite device in France.
Cergy-Le Haut ...
Notice that RoboToilet is watching over the city, controlling it ...
Another warning poster on the train ...
More train and train station photos. Gordon is featured prominently.
Ah, yes, now I remember where we were going. We were going to The Real McCoy, a food store that caters to displaced Americans living in Paris.
Here we are at The Real McCoy. The prices are outrageous (I paid something approaching $10 for a bag of Oreo cookies), but worth it ...
Afterwards, Gordon and I had a coffee ...
This is some babe that Gordon had the hots for ... he asked me to take pictures covertly ...
A condom machine and me pretending to make a purchase. Actually, commuters passed by me posing and Gordon taking a picture and found it quite amusing.
A man and his dogs at the train station ...
More Paris photos ...
A RoboToilet watching over the city ...
A model of motorcycle popular in Paris. It has a restraint system built in. A very odd bike.

More Paris photos ...
We found the Starbuck's coffee in Paris ...

Yes, Photo Hunt!
Seeking out alternate hotels ... don't know why I took a picture of the fire hydrant.
