Storming the Bastille



217 years and 12 days after the event the changed Western Europe, it was my turn to have a shot at it.

After France's shocking victory versus the heavily favored Brazilians, les Francais took to the streets as only the know how to do and caused a huge ruckus. Many climbed up the statue at Place de la Bastille and went crazy. I thought I should try it too. Quand en France, fait comme les Francais. It was crazy... or I was crazy to do it.

Il y a beaucoup de gens sur les rues et pas une flic. Tout le monde etait chanter et tres content. C'etait tres interessant.
