Fresh bait at a Decathlon near Paris; French fish eat very
well before being snagged; we were told the terrine de

So Rebecca found this important cultural landmark...there is a scene in Ratatouille

it is this exterminator store in Paris...

With real dead specimens in the windows

Salute to America!

Probably another salute to America; we ate at Amorino's
many times, but never saw anyone ordering this; maybe
we were not in the right part of town
