Went to Paris last June 2008 for the LINNC course (www.linnc.com) which was held in the Carousel du Louvre (where the keep the Mona Lisa painting in the museum there). This is my second trip to Paris, after the first visit in 2007. Since i am not an art lover, Paris is not so exciting for me, and things in Europe are expensive. However the organizer and EV3 made a boat trip that night and i took a few shots of Paris with my Dopod D810 camera (so the images are not that good), which includes Arc De Triompe and Eifel Tower.
Went for a walk around town and found this crooked building image, which is actually only a drawing to conceal the construction of a building behind it. Very interesting drawing as compared to a very plain partition in any constructions in Kuala Lumpur.
For the last night, the organizer had a dinner in Chateau de Versailes, which is the last castle of the French Monarch. We skip this visit, since it is quite far from centre of the town and also we miss real meals. If you know Frenchmen, their lunch is very small and most of it not "halal". So instead of going to Chateau de Versailes, we go and find some Arabic food, and we have Kebab for dinner. Haha!
And as for the conference, it is fantastic, which i will talk about in another post.

Ask a frenchie for directions in English and most likely you'll be ignored. Ask him in Malay and he will ask you, "Can you speaka da anglais?"
Typical Frenchman.
