Paris - Lightening the Load

Otherwise Known as Pickpocketing
One of Jean's girlfriends, InKee, is spending a vacation week in London and came to stay with me to experience Paris for two days.  Experience it she did - within two hours of arriving she had her pocket picked.  Somewhere between taking in the sights at Notre Dame and the Louvre, her wallet, with most of her credit cards and 300 Euros, was expertly lifted from her pocketbook.  Welcome to Paris!  This has to be especially hard for a Singaporean to deal with coming from a country with little crime but she took it pretty well.  I loaned her some money and we went out to dinner - a real Frenchy dinner of snails and frogs legs.
