The Idiot got so tired of running into celebrities in Paris that after a two-week stay he took a high-speed train to Biarritz in southwestern France.
After all, you can only take so much exposure to…
….Gerard Depardieu’s restaurant on rue du Cherche-Midi.
…the revealing Oscar Wilde exhibition at the Petit-Palais museum.
…Saint Jean-Paul in the gardens of the Notre Dame Cathedral.
…Joan of Arc on the rue de Rivoli.
Then it’s time to quit walking on cobblestones and in confined city parks and start getting exercise on expansive Atlantic Ocean beaches.
