I just got back from a couple of days in Paris. It was a business trip, so not 
many pictures, but here is an amuse-bouche from Tuesday and Wednesday nights.

Tuesday, November 27th:

I arrived in Paris Tuesday evening, made my way from Orly to the city. Walking 
to my hotel from the RER station:

I met up with Tarek on Place Saint Michel, from where we walked to a beer bar. 
Tarek had some difficulties with the new Apple maps:

We did find the bar, for some reason it was called the Mayflower, but never 
mind, it had lots of good Belgian beers on tap, including Tripel Karmeliet and 
Delirium Tremens. All were served in regular UK half pint and pint glasses, a 
really strange experience:

After a few hours of this, we hit the metro and went to our respective homes 
(in my case, a dumpy Best Western hotel):

Wednesday, November 28th:
I spent all day in an OECD conference room, and making a presentation to a 
heavyweight audience with a hangover is no fun. But I survived, and in the 
evening I went out for dinner with a group of economists from the US, Europe, 
Canana, the UK. Afterwards, while walking to the metro to go back to my hotel, 
I spotted this nice couple of Avenue Victor Hugo:

And then I took the metro from Charles de Gaulle-Etoile, walked to my hotel in 
the rain at the other end, and hit the bed.

Paris is magic.

All pictures with the Fuji X100 toy camera.

Cheers,
Nathan
