  • Yes!!!!  My pictures are finally uploaded!  (Chamonix, Paris, Italy) This past weekend, I ventured out to the French Alps at Chamonix, France.  It was an immensely beautiful sight.  In fact, I even said, “Some people say that there’s no God, or don’t believe in any type of higher power.  However,…

  • One thing I realized I left out from yesterday’s log was that on Wednesday, I went to a Couscous restaurant.  Couscous is considered an original French food that’s almost like rice and soup, but with a French twist.  Not knowing what that French twist really was, I decided to have…
