A few random thoughts...


Europeans love American music...everywhere we go you hear it...from the radio, to bars, to live music. We actually heard the Hanson Brothers in a bar, and street performers singing Sweet Home Alabama...it's a nice reminder of home. Makes us proud!


Another thing...Obama is a SUPERSTAR over here...he's everywhere! He's on tshirts, hats, posters, tabloids, and we even saw a live performer painting a picture of him at the Pompido Museum (the modern art museum we spoke about in a previous blog).


The image is not very good, we had to snap it fast so the merchant wouldn't yell at us...but if you look closely you can see a poster for sale of Obama transposed on the Statue of Liberty. This was shot on our way to the internet

cafe in one of the open air markets.
