Another small thing I don’t like about Amsterdam is the cigarette smoking. A young woman near us at a bar smoked like 10 cigs in 2 hours. But I can understand why they allow it considering Amsterdam’s vibe.

They still play music videos on French television. So that’s pretty cool. I’m being introduced to a lot of new artists, and I just heard a song by Justice, who I saw perform last year.

I’m watching French television and saw an ad for the 1994 film UN INDIEN DANS LA VILLE. I thought it looked a lot like JUNGLE 2 JUNGLE starring Tim Allen. Well, it turns out the latter is the American remake of the former. 🤯
