    Unlike our European fiends, Americans are resistant to learning another language. It has only been recently that there is an interest in languages. The best way to learn a language is to live in the country for a specified time.

    After all of the students left except the one who showed Colin’s photo to the group, “Sir, I have a friend that has a private collection you might be interested in seeing. I know he would like to discuss art with you. He travels a lot and always brings back paintings from the places he visits.”\ “I would like to see his private collection. Many of the paintings in the museums have been photographed and seen all over the world. A private collection would have paintings that aren’t as well kn

    I always was told that PARIS was a city for young lovers. The Louvre was closed to the public but the guard was the one who walked with them. He probably learned as much as the kids

    At that time Arrow was just coming into his own. His fame was known only among a few..

    It is okay, your comments are alway welcome. I visited the Anne Frank home in 2002. I don't recall having a reservation. I did comment in the book as I was leaving. If you ever go back, check it out 🙂

    I'm not an artist but I remember walking through the Louvre and seeing students sitting on the benches copying a painting. I never saw their finished painting, if they had finished it, but the they were very intense

    Walking back to Madam Lavigne’s, we stopped for bread, pastries, and a bottle of wine. Madam Lavigne was glad to see us. She opened the wine and poured us a glass as she asked how we spent our day, and I told her about our meeting with students; she smiled. Dinner was the same as we had at that French restaurant back home, and the difference was the chef. Collin took a bite and smiled, and he remembered as well. “Which tasted better?” “This tastes better.” He was right, a small percent

    If anyone taught them that lesson was the Germans during WW2. Even today not all of the masterpieces that were stolen have been found.
