The iHog Does Paris

April 18, 2008 by WendyB

Fernando von Bakonstein here, reporting from Paris, where I’ve been pigging out a bit.

This one’s for Carol.
Place de la Concorde

The Louvre

A view of the Eiffel Tower from the Tuileries

Mon Dieu! This isn’t funny!

This town is bad for pigs

Those shoes are too big for me, alas.

The fashionable Avenue Montaigne

Ah, a nice glass of rose after all that walking.

Hic!

    Save some Laudree macaroons for me!

    My life is now sadly reduced to envying a small plastic pig.

    How sad.

    Luv

    Poochie, you have NOTHING to complain about after getting the most beautiful shoes in the world!

    You have acquired a typical Japanese style of blogging, including shooting your own food (no pun intended).

    Say hello to the piggy 🙂

    how cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    oh, and don’t be scared about hackers! heehee It was a boy, I know who it was, and he hacked my yahoo which connected to my gmail..etc. lesson learned: do not let all your accounts connect to each other. =) ohh…and don’t use same passwords. the boy is obsessive compulsive and I don’t talk to him no matter what so I had no choice but to get the accounts deleted. 🙁

    I knew you’d show him a good time. He’ll never want to leave now.

    Tres fantasique!

    Somehow, I wrote a sentence with two words that contained 18 errors, because that’s the ability I bring to las lenguas extranjeras.

    Fernando really knows how to make the scene. Tell him to stay away from that quiche du Jambon! He could be in danger!

    Did Fernando go to the Marie Antoinette exhibit with you?

    I have a yellow duckie that would really love to be friends with Fernando.
