O M le G

I woke up this morning to get ready for an appointment. I walked Higgins the opposite way from the pâtisserie shop in an attempt to avoid the almond croissant.

Some of you may be wondering if I am getting fat.

The answer is no.

I checked out the location of my appointment and realized it was on the outskirts of Paris. 

No problem, I thought. I have heard several ad agencies are located in this area. I will just allow extra time getting there.

Three trains and 1 hour later I arrived at Pont de Sevres.

I started at the top circle, destination is the bottom circle.

Of course, I had no idea where I was when I hit the street and could not find anyone who spoke English to point me in the right direction. I called my contact on the phone only to have a young child answer in English. 

A man with a thick accent eventually got on the other line....let's call him Jean-Luc and assume he wears a scarf indoors. I told him where I was and that I was having trouble finding his office.

"Ah, Melissa, walk one block toward the water near the bridge. But don't go over the bridge. When you come toward the water I will see you. I live on a boat."

"Ok"  I said.

I hung up and proceeded directly back to the metro.

Two hours wasted time?

Some may think this...but for me it was not for nothing....as I learned some kind of lesson to be revealed at another time...and also saw a free puppet show on the way with a pigeon in the audience.

Now safely back at home, I think I need a glass of wine.
