...A very nice white. Like a deep and moving white. <br />It reminds me of the White Dinner 2009 and the day after. One year in-between. Quite amazing and though not amazing. In fact, 365 days plus 6 days. 371 days. I remember July, August, Sept, Oct, Nov, Dec, January, Feb, March, Apr, May and now. I remember all. All photos. And that is a lot. Of photos and precious moments, you know. So is the White Dinner, like any other D-Day, there to remind me of the times flying but not wasting. LOL!<br />No. There's much more than that. There's so much more. A lot of work. A lot of time. A lot of huge pleasure. A lot of all. A lot.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-74803717825758010582010-06-18T09:37:38.463+02:002010-06-18T09:37:38.463+02:00There were HUNDREDS if not a few thousand people A...There were HUNDREDS if not a few thousand people ALL dressed in white ,all with white tablecloths all with table and chairs. This was Paris, and not a backpacking crowd. Some tables had candleabras and some with crystal. There was champagne corks popping up into the sky everywhere! An interesting side note was the pockets of singing of Happy Birthday to friends....sounds funny to me to hear it in French....but a great way to spend your birthday. There were a few bands , all in white, playing festive music around the Louvre,and me and a few others wandering around in bluejeans taking pictures. <br />A garbage truck rode by the street that splits the Louvre and started honking his horn to the partygoers. All the sudden, people started twirling their white napkins in the air in a wave like you see in American football games. The Eiffel tower lit up in a sparkle on the hr. in the backround and it all turned magical. <br />Thank you thank you Eric, for letting me into a life enhancing experience. Eric. who was lost from me at this point... couldn't even get me on the phone because the lines were jammed with people trying to find their friends' tables. Can you imagine how many people there were???????<br />What a country, Paris plage, fete de la musique, velibs, white night, white dinner....you fill in the rest!phx-cdgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-90878899867274337642010-06-18T09:15:54.539+02:002010-06-18T09:15:54.539+02:00OUI!

Eric called me the MINUTE he got the message and told me to go to the waiting area between the Concorde and rond point on the Champs E. I was the only one there as I was there in 5 minutes! Then people in white with rolled up tables and chairs and rolling carts(with their dinner in it) started coming out of nowhere and waited in the adjoining parks on either side. Eric found me (ahh, the beauty of cell phones) and we chit chatted for half an hr, then BOOM! All the white ants started moving en mass from either side of the Champs to Concorde. What a sight to see. Eric biked there while I walked with the people and we found each other again. Then Eric got the word to go to the courtyard of the Louvre where the Pyramid is located. Then more people started showing up in BUSSES! I counted 10 huge busloads of people streaming out into the Louvre grounds! will stop to print and will finish.phx-cdgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-44684566185149770382010-06-18T08:08:02.315+02:002010-06-18T08:08:02.315+02:00Le White Dinner?Le White Dinner?Thibhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03788623808410470446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-83071263677757042872010-06-18T05:50:21.410+02:002010-06-18T05:50:21.410+02:00Funny links TG.
