I have no idea how Kame manages to look so casual on the helm with another boat racing along so close behind us... Larry, our tactician on friday, doesn't look too flustered either!

I had one of my "wow, they really think of history differently here" moments here -- we were actually looking at Laurent's old school, which is behind where I'm standing -- but this play yard/basketball court was across the street, and is edged by a remnant of the second wall that encircled Paris -- built in the 1100s. There was small plaque near the sidewalk, but that's it -- no fence separating it from the kids' games, no protective layer of plastic shielding it from the elements or graffiti artists, no tickets being sold. Just a thousand-year-old wall, part of the regular city fabric. I think this is SO cool.
update: this is the Wall of Philippe Auguste
