Interesting things I noticed in Paris
- Almost all of the buildings are a shade of white, and most of them are still have the classic Mansard roof. I noticed this when we were looking out at the city from the Eiffel Tower.
- Most of the store clerks and restaurant wait staff speak to women first, not men. Unfortunately, this leaves Tracie attempting to figure out what they're saying in French.
- Most restaurants have espresso, and all of the espresso machines are the real kind, not the automatic ones Starbucks uses.
