Jerry and James left Paris last Thursday, and it was probably a good time to leave. As they were leaving, thousands of French people were streaming into Paris for Bastille Day weekend, the biggest celebration in France all year. It would have been wild but crazy, maybe fun but maybe not for guys who can't speak French, and hotel rooms would have been at a premium, if available at all.
For any French citizens and Francophiles and former French students out there on 14 July 2013, Happy Bastille Day!
For any non-Francophiles and non-former French students wondering what the heck Basille Day is, help is on the way -- just click on the link:
