***ARRIVING TO PARIS***

First, let me start off by apologizing to those people who I told to read my blog while I was away in Paris...namely Waheed :-0 ).

Anyway, the plane ride to Paris was slighty bumpy, in such a way that I felt frightened for my life. This statement comes from someone who has flown several times, but not out of the country.

I was lucky and was seated next to a nice African young man, who attends Conneticut University. Ironically, he was from Nigeria. He is the fourth Nigerian that I have met in the last year and a half.

So, when we landed, I was the happiest American alive. It seems that I became ill from the vegetarian pasta and so did three other Paris Travelearn students.
