This ‘Fair Weather Fan’ Will Now Return To Shopping!

Paris Shop WindowAs I wrote in my first post about the Coupe du Monde de Rugby, I was not interested in watching the games and said I would rather do some serious shopping instead! Well, can I help it if rugby fever just took over Paris big-time and swept me up along with it?!

After yesterday’s match with England, however, the doctor’s prognosis is in: the fever has gone down and I’m back to normal once again! So,…shopping here I come!

English FansOh yeah, I think Jed over at The London Traveler has the same symptoms and has caught the bug, but like I told him, I just don’t want to talk about it! Lol!
