| Love Padlocks. Placed on bridges by couples to symbolize their eternal love. The Pont des Art is the main bridge where love padlocks are found, but these were on the Pont de l'Archevêché near Notre Dame. |

| This pretty much sums up Paris in August. Translation: "Closed until September 5th. Good vacation to all." You find many of these signs posted on doors of restaurant and store throughout Paris. |

| The bounty inside Thanksgiving. I found that peanut butter, what I think of as a staple- to be a most elusive item. You can find five types of honey and ten varieties of jam at any supermarket, but you have to go to a grocery store in the part of Paris where Americans tend to shop to find a jar of peanut butter. And even then, it may not be a familiar brand. I searched for 2 weeks so that I can make some doggy treats for the puppies. Finally found one in a grocery store in the Marais neighborhood. |

| Couldn't leave Thanksgiving without a few items. There is a price for having familiar products, and it seems to be double prices in the States. |
