*Sigh* L'amour...

So one thing that perturbs me about Paris is the amount of lovin' going on in the streets.  I am not one for public displays of affection in the US, but I can sometimes appreciate the connection between two people that do not want to hide the way they feel... That being said, this is out of control.  People young and old, mostly young, simply make-out everywhere at every hour of the day.  Park benches, cafés, waiting to cross the street.... I mean, REALLY PEOPLE! Unnecessary.  I can say, however, that such a nuisance is easily remedied by the fact that drinking openly in public is allowed, and one can carry an open bottle of wine through the streets, taking periodic swigs and no one will even look at you twice.
