    Just spent the last 4 days in Paris.

    It was fun seeing the sites, but I don't have a great desire to go back.

    I think my favorite part was a cedric car tour of the city. We saw another guy giving a similar tour on a motorcycle and sidecar (for 1 or 2 people)

    Hearing different things. Do I need to buy an adaptor to charge all my gear, or what?

    solar charging tech can be inconsistent. A trick is to buy the 3 cheapest brands of solar panels, then just use the one that works the best.

    there's a meteor crater out in the farmlands. They grow grapes and have a winery + visitors center. It's freaking SPACE WINE !! (really stout, strong brew. Those frenchies don't play around.

    A quick google search for Macarons brought up this place


    Ladurée
    75 Av. des Champs-Élysées, 75008 Paris, France

    My suggestion is to eat a macaron preferably pistachio flavor since it is my favorite. I’ve never been but that’s what I’d do.

    You’ll probably find them in a lot of pastry shops. France is known for their pastries.

    Bahamas actually have some decent talent on their team. I didn't even know B. Hield and E.Gordon
