There must be scores of places in Paris that are interesting, historic, and worthy of visit that you have never made it to. You can do that in a small town as well!

There's a whole load of programmes pertaining to it, too, leading up to midnight. What I'm trying to say, is, that I personally will understand if most of you want to watch that instead of racing to be GF. I mean, no worries, really. Honestly. You enjoy LOST. It's a great series. I should think everyone will be watching it, so - you know - no panic.

The room is illuminagted by the light filtering through a deep blue stained glass, which cases a glow on the somber bronze statue. The atmosphere is mystical.<BR/><BR/>My description will not do it justice. Perhaps Eric will show us a photo of it in the future, if he ever gets inside as millions of tourists do on their first visit to Paris.<BR/><BR/>While you are inside, Eric, enjoy the beautiful chapel, and take a glance at the tomb of that Napolean chap. You can't miss it.
