Snoop: San Juan Islands, USA

Posted onJuly 26, 2015May 10, 2016AuthorSnoopLeave a comment

We took a seaplane to get to Friday Harbor, the biggest town on San Juan Island. What we saw of the island was very quaint and cute. I am spending the next few weeks on a small island 10 minutes away by boat. I’ll let you know how it goes.

The Tour de France is the biggest bike race in the world. It ended today in Paris and we got to see it. During the first lap we were in Angelina. It is a restaurant that serves the best hot chocolate in the world. I am going to do a video of this, I think. It Read More …

Snoop: Versailles

Posted onJuly 21, 2012May 10, 2015AuthorSnoopLeave a comment

Versailles was huge. They had huge teapots and kettles there. Taller than I am. They were shrubberies. I like to say “shrubberies,” like they do in Monty Python. There were a lot of fountains, but, there were not as many as there were in Peterhof, in Russia. The Palace was huge. Here is my video Read More …

Snoop: Musee d’Orsay

Posted onJuly 18, 2012May 10, 2015AuthorSnoopLeave a comment

First off, I would not recommend this museum. That is why I am making this blog post very short. Here are the main reasons why I was disappointed: 1. You cannot look through the clock like in Hugo Cabret. 2. There was no trace that they had used this station in the movie. I learned Read More …

We went for a visit to Giverny. This is a place out in the countryside from Paris, and it is the house and the gardens where Claude Monet lived and painted. I am making a video of this. You could see where the Water Lilies” was painted, with the bridge and everything.   The gardens Read More …

Snoop: Bastille Day in Paris

Posted onJuly 15, 2012May 10, 2015AuthorSnoopLeave a comment

Bastille Day is a very cool celebration (See my video). They do a big parade in the morning and then, fireworks at night over the Eiffel Tower. It was a great experience. We went to a party with very nice beverages (called Schweppes – but, the Indian Tonic is revolting. Get the lemon, it is Read More …

Snoop: France 1

Posted onJuly 14, 2012May 10, 2015AuthoradminLeave a comment

We got into our apartment and we immediately smelled smoke. Unfortunately, it wasn’t a fire in the fireplace. It stunk like an ashtray full of cigarettes. We think someone smoked in the bathroom of our non-smoking apartment. Whenever we open the front door, we nearly choke. We went to the store and bought all kinds Read More …
