It's a weird line to ride on coz you can look out of the front and see the tunnel zooming towards you so to speak, with no driver!Sabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17273148512437196010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-11625035186178991592007-06-27T00:19:00.000+02:002007-06-27T00:19:00.000+02:00BART is a train.

The Muni underground is much more similar to the metro (complete with people jam-packed, sudden stops, smells), but compared to Paris it's just a very small sample. And then again, compared to Paris, I suppose the city of SF itself is really, really small. Next time you come to Bay Area, we'll have to give you a "proper" tour of our beloved City by the Bay :-DTomate Farciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12102741033638005250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-48455334301429525742007-06-26T23:30:00.000+02:002007-06-26T23:30:00.000+02:00ciao! nice blog. visit mineciao! nice blog. visit mineMichele Bosellihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12099679957267594811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-15374382265626526002007-06-26T23:23:00.000+02:002007-06-26T23:23:00.000+02:00oooh great photo!

I did take Bart in San Francisco.

I have an awful problem with the stairs. Some have escalators and/or elevators but not enough. I can make it doing six steps at a time but what about those poor folks who can hardly walk or are in a wheelchair. We have official groups here that insist on help for the handicapped. Do the groups exist in Paris?JohnnyParsonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00192355291272788111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-35642195641650488542007-06-26T13:28:00.000+02:002007-06-26T13:28:00.000+02:00Oh Thank you Eric :o) I know now that I should bri...Oh Thank you Eric :o) I know now that I should bring with me such a mirror? or glass? for my next visit to Paris as the last 3times was hard to read the Metro map :o)Beetlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05117803326149532522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-41853199983954903122007-06-26T10:43:00.000+02:002007-06-26T10:43:00.000+02:00les "Parisiens ponctuels" alias les provinciaux, v...les "Parisiens ponctuels" alias les provinciaux, vous remercient Eric de leur donner une information que les médias nationaux ne daignent pas leur communiquer...<BR/><BR/>p.s. devez-vous préciser la langue utilisée quand vous donnez un document en français?<BR/><BR/>je suis certaine que les francophiles anglophones qui constituent une grande partie de votre lectorat ne vous en tiennent pas rigueur,bien au contraire!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-18780371804329694382007-06-26T09:08:00.000+02:002007-06-26T09:08:00.000+02:00j'ouvre le bal et a vrais dire je n'ai rien a dire...j'ouvre le bal et a vrais dire je n'ai rien a dire aujourd'hui...Monsieur Pain d'épiceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05016387596797081952noreply@blogger.com
