Last weekend was much needed. We visited a friend in her hometown, Guimaraes, about 30 minutes out of the city. BEAUTIFUL city, where the first king of Portugal was born andthe country was founded.

Primavera em Porto
Hey guys! Sorry for my absence the past few weeks. I know all my fans (my one fan... Russ Wakeham, you out there?) have been anxiously awaiting my next post.
The weather in Porto has been FABULOUS lately. It makes me want to be anywhere, but inside. Damn the 40 hour work week. My past few weekends have been spent in this beautiful port city, a good portion of that due to my bank account bottoming near the double digits. Regardless, I spent ultimo fim de semana walking around the city, going to the beach and paintballing for the first time. It's hard to understand the rules of paintball when they are told to you in Portuguese, which makes me think I cheated the whole time.
Paintball at an abandoned mental asylum, kind of creepy.
Argentina, Colombia and California at the park
A couple weeks ago, I got to pick up this cute face at the OPO airport.

J'adore Paris
Hi all! I just arrived back from Paris a few days ago. I was ABSOLUTELY AMAZED by the city. Paris was exactly as I envisioned it... The timeless architecture, the outdoor cafes, even the stuck up French with their permanent facial expression that looks like they're smelling s*&t.
Marieve and I decided to have a romantic weekend together in the city of love. We galavanted through just about everything Paris had to offer... We enjoyed the artistic talent of Montmartre, Walked along the classy promenade of Champs-Elysees, Saw the Arch of Triumph (you've seen one, you've seen them all and if you haven't seen one, this picture will suffice)
Were nearly runover by the terrible drivers in Plaza de la Concorde, Got frustratingly lost in the Louvre
Pretended to be intellectual Parisians in the Artcurial Auction House, Took pictures inside the Cathedral Notre-Dame... only to have them deleted by an employee since no cameras were allowed, Fell down a flight of stairs in the Luxembourg Gardens, Tried to sneak into the fashion house of Givenchy
Were hypnotized by the street-style of the city as it was Paris Fashion Week, and then there was an afternoon of drinking too much wine under the Eiffel Tower... a top favorite.
Note the purple teeth...
