The road to Paris is a long one, almost 6 hours in all. This time does seem shorter, however, when it is passed alongside friends.So Friday evening I found myself on the road to Paris with Ziming, Sharon, and Ziming's boyfriend Antoine. The hours passed quickly in a blur of French conversation, interrupted only briefly by a quick break for dinner at a Quick Burger on the side of the French highway.
By midnight the conversation had begun to lull and I found myself beginning to nod off. I must have slept because the next thing I remember was waking up and finding myself leaning with the car as Antoine drove us along the ancient streets of l'Île Adam at an alarming speed, the clock reading 1 in the morning. So I guess there are really 2 things that helps the time seem shorter: conversation and sleep.
