Vacation is meant to relieve the stresses and hassles of every day life; when you want to getaway from it all go online and find the best resort packages available. As great as it sounds, a romantic getaway cruise is honestly so much more than what you can imagine. Vacation is meant to be a time of relaxation; a break from the stress and chaos that too often comprises daily routine. <BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://www.romantic-weekend-getaway-ohio.info/" REL="nofollow">romantic getaway california</A>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-1164110418207425812006-11-21T13:00:00.000+01:002006-11-21T13:00:00.000+01:00Ah well Michael that's so kind of you to say, x , ...Ah well Michael that's so kind of you to say, x , it's merely a ten min sketch and i'd happily send it as a petit cadeau to Eric if i knew where !

I am currently reading "60 Million Frenchmen Can't Be Wrong" and it's a cultural study made by a french canadian man and his canadian wife (who is not francophone) who went to France for two years to...discover the French! <BR/><BR/>They touch upon so many cultural differences and one is perception of relationships.....the French have (correct me if I'm wrong) a core group of Friends who they cherish and share intimate aspects of their lives with whereas Americans make "friends" with everyone, even the person they meet on the metro etc. but that it is understood by all the different KINDS of friends....if that makes any sense. <BR/><BR/>A few of my French friends studying and working abroad in the States told me that they originally thought that Americans were two-faced because at a party, the person that they were talking to would say "GREAT! WE SHOULD DEFINITELY HANG OUT!" and then they would never call them...my friends were confused because they thought that they were friends! Maybe Americans have learned to decipher sincere relationships from the normal "nice to meet you etc.?"<BR/><BR/>In any case, I look forward to doing my own cultural study while I am abroad.... :-)::N::https://www.blogger.com/profile/06027445058786088089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-1163268808200243542006-11-11T19:13:00.000+01:002006-11-11T19:13:00.000+01:00Tacky?

I first heard this song in 1944 when I was ten. My Grandmother,Marion Von Thaer, bought me an album (literally) of Piaf for my birthday. I played her records over and over. Grandma told me about Armistice Day many times. She herself was born on September 9, 1900 and remembered the big day as a young girl. <BR/>Michael, Thanks for the video link, I loved it. If you recall the American version of the song is not a literal translation though it still has the feeling.<BR/>Eric, Your a winner, always. You have the right slant on the American ways. We do share our emotional experiences readily although it varies with personalities and backgrounds. I hope you are visiting my fledgling blog, Johnnysarc. It is still about my Paris experience though it will soon change to the South of France simply because we were only in Paris for five weeks the last time.JohnnyParsonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00192355291272788111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-1163259338949083792006-11-11T16:35:00.000+01:002006-11-11T16:35:00.000+01:00Wow, the comments a simply rose can evoke!Paris wi...Wow, the comments a simply rose can evoke!<BR/>Paris will always be the city of love for a lot of people so i think your picture sums it up pretty well.<BR/><BR/>ps; when i hear La vie en rose i think of Grace Jones :)Inekehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09370294740348680716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-1163250707399989172006-11-11T14:11:00.000+01:002006-11-11T14:11:00.000+01:00Thanks Michael for the link!

I love that song....and must know it from movies.<BR/><BR/>Before my trip to Paris, when I was imagining what it would be like....that song was always playing in my head! LOL! There was also an accordian! But....in reality French music wasn't there...sigh. Only old and mostly bad American music! If the cafes won't play French music, maybe you, being an American, could at least introduce them to better American music? At least from the last decade?
