Tour de Eifel

Yeah sometimes Life is good, even to nuts. T.so and I were in Paris on Wednesday



The fashion week was over but the city was full of models and fashion lunatics. Besides them a million tourists and one special nut!



J'adore Paris. And this is not nuts
kisses to the world an especially to GGGee from Paris the City for Lovers

The french connection

Commissioner Herb from the WIA found a new trail. One that may leads him to the so long missed red ribbon. One possibility could be that a romantic lunatic just kidnapped the red ribbon and took it away. Away from GGGee and so far as he possible could.



So if this is the case, than what would be more logical than try to find some evidence for this cruel deeds at the airport nearby. You do see Commissioner Herb following the smallest hint. Rumor has it, the city for lovers and maybe desperate lovers is Paris.



So here we go. Herb is taking a close look at the Hotel Lutetia in Paris. A hotel with quite an interesting history. Celebrities are staying here, maybe one of these is the love lunatic kidnapper?

Watch as Commissioner Herb is investigating every detail in this house. "Hey yo kidnapper, watch out cause Herb is in da House"



The next place to have a long and closer look is the metro in Paris. How many suspicious lover boys or girls have entered this station and trying to hide a broken heart. "Red ribbon are you there??"


The opera, ah seems a good advice, maybe the phantom of the opera did this cruel deed. If we can find it here, that would solve the case at once. But the Phantom was not in the opera and the red ribbon wasn't either.



Another metro another suspect. Watch the Lady looking at us, maybe she did know something. No she didn't know a thing, she just thinks that is nuts to have a nut being commissioner.

Well Paris was not as hot a trail, as Herb have hoped, but he will go hunt the kidnapper down.

Kisses to GGGee from Herb from Paris and that's not nuts!

Tour de Paris

On Thursday, T.so took me to Paris! Again we strolled near Notre Dame and the university before he met with customers.





We feel very french when we order a croissant and a cup of hot chocolate for breakfast.



After the meeting we had lunch with the customer and visited Arc de Triumph - well alone with out the customer



The weather was hot and a thunderstorm was in the air. So when we get back to the airport, the thunderstorm breaks loose. We got their in time, but the flight was delayed.

The security officer found me in T.so pocket of his shirt. He was a little bit confused but then smiled at me and T.so and handed me back. Due to the bad weather the flight was cancelled. We got a voucher for the Ibis Hotel and it was a night mare to get there. It was directly in an ugly suburb of the airfield.



Our flight in the next morning had a delay of 70 minutes and we flew into turbulences due to thunderstorm again. But at the end we landed safe and nicely.

GGGee we thought of you, while beeing in Paris. And that ain't nuts at all!!

Paris mon amoure

We arrived nearly on time in Paris, and as soon as we reached the conveyor belt T.so's suitcase was on it. We didn't have to wait for one second, that is the way I like it. So we stroll towards train station and the next positive surprise was, that due to lack of stuff the ride towards Gare due North was free of charge. Well we rode one station further and manged to get through the control station with out being caught. That reminded T.so of his youth when everything was easy going.

We saw many of the famous symbols and buildings Paris stands for, we even stopped by at the pyramid at the Louvre, where the da Vinci Code ended but I didn't felt something special, so may be the Code doesn't apply to nuts.

T.so walked through Paris by night with a suitcase and the bag of his laptop. We both felt a little bit like Gigi in one of this lovely movies made in the 50's, back when the world doesn't seems to be that nuts, well at least from our perspective today. The boss of T.so waited on us - at least on him - in the hotel, but T.so preferred to show Paris to me and thinking of GGGee, who really had a hard time and felt so much wounded and hurt these days. I know that T.so hates to hurt her, hates it to his bones. Drives him crazy but we all know he is the nut person in our ménage à trois.

At the Eiffel tower some people glanced at us, watching me and T.so taking pictures of me posing in front of the famous sign. I wonder how many other nuts have been photographed in front of old Gustav?

We were inspired by the scene and T.so was thinking of the past and tries to see the future, but future is not to be seen. Always in a change as Yoda once said!



We took the metro to the hotel and on the way T.so was asked by French people for the way to some specific places, does he look as a guy living here?? Funny!!

When we finally got at the hotel it was midnight and the boss of T-so still waiting on him at the lobby. He discussed the suppliers meeting day for the next day for more than two hours, that is something I called nuts. So the day was long and hard for T.so but some parts are chosen by him self, so I don't pity him that much!

Trip to Paris

After we have visited two customers in the Frankfurt area, T.so took me to the airport of Frankfurt and we checked in with Air France.

Strange and huge airport, people all seems to be nuts and they have looked at me if never seen a nut before checking in. Funny.

The people at security, well I guess that they have seen stranger things than a nut checking through. They did not even blinked with one or two eyes. It is normal for nuts checking through security. X-rayed I felt a little dizzy but good. Well was my second flight, at least the second I remember and I was anxious to see the country of my birth.

Definite I'm a french walnut. Amoure mon cherie, is in my genes all over the place :-)!!

Well for nuts like me there is plenty of room in a plane and flying is always cool. Feels like being an angel. T.so always have the wish when the plane just breaks through the clouds to walk on them. Must be a great feeling walking on clouds, maybe with little wings on your feet and letting all sorrows go and let them sink down to earth.

Well if only this plane could only rush back in time that would be great and that wish isn't nuts at all.
