Paris

Just arrived in Paris, ready to fall over from exhaustion - row 47 of 48 on the plane, crying babies and a girl scout troop on excursion. The kids chattered incessantly so no sleep. It's hot here today in Paris but not overwhelmingly so.

For all that, the meetings in DC went well - discussions on national security and civil liberties. Very glad I went.

There is now a Starbuck's at the foot of the Rue Moffetard (sp?). Otherwise things pretty much the same here in the Place d'Italie.
