Jason, inside "Angelina's" in Paris. They have the absolute best hot chocolate in the world. On a scale of 0 to 100, where 0 represents no chocolate, and 100 represents having all your blood replaced by chocolate, this hot chocolate scores a 97.


Jason and Alayne


After this trip, we had a very long flight back to Boston. The flight took off around 2:00 PM (local Paris time) on Saturday, and we landed around 4:00 PM local Boston time. A long, packed, turbulent, 8-hour flight home. We were seriously jet-lagged. Jason woke up at 3:30 AM on Sunday morning. Oh wait! don't forget about daylight savings time on Sunday. That means Jason woke up at 2:30 AM. It took several days to get back on track...
