Empire of the Dead

Went to the catacombs under Paris today, totally worth seeing, especially on a really hot day. The tunnels stay a cool 17(C) degrees. Why not escape the heat and chill with thousands of dead Parisians.


I went with my friend Mélanie, she was nice and translated some of the Tombstones for me. It had been raining a little the night before and the ceiling was dripping with water. The whole place is dimly lit and Mélanie didn't see a big puddle before she stepped in it.

-"Ahh!"
-"Don't worry it's just water"
-"NO IT IS NOT!"

Yum, Bone Mud





 I was walking around down there with this Harlem song stuck in my head.
Harlem - Friendly Ghost
