Tonight we went to run an errand in the car. Driving around the Arc de Triomphe is crazy and I never want to do it. Doug gets a kick out of it. The rule is that the people coming into the circle around the Arc have the right of way. So, all the people circling around have to stop at each street to let people in (and there are 12 streets). Then you navigate your way gradually to the outside before you want to exit. So last night, we got into the middle of the circle and were in too far to try to dart out 4 lanes of traffic (that is if they really had lanes, because there are no lines on the road). So we circled around again. I had a Clark Griswald moment when he was stuck going around a circle over and over again. "Kids. Big Ben. Parliment..." It made me smile.
