OK .. THE LAST HAIRCUT AND EVEN SINGLE HAIR OF MY BEARD THAT WAS CUT WAS DECEMBER 2016 BY PHILIPPE. I COULD NOT REMEMBER HOW TO GET IN TOUCH SO I WALKED BACK TO SEE MAJDOU AT MIJE. I LOVE HER HAIR AND SHE REFERRED ME TO PHILIPPE BACK IN 2016.
AFTER AN EXTENDED TIME OF CUTTING AND SHAMPOO AND WHATEVER ... I AM PLEASED WITH THE NEW LOOK >> THANK YOU !! NOW I HAVE TO SHOW MAJDOU. (*.*)
WAITING FOR THE DE WINTERS TO ARRIVE FOR OUR DINNER AT FRESCO ( THIS INVOLVES A NUMBER OF AMAZING STORIES )
DELICIOUS DINNER & VISIT WITH DE WINTERS ( why did I not take a selfie with my friends? )
THIS RUM CAKE HAS TO BE THE BEST EVER .. NOTICE THE SIDE OF RUM !!!!
AFTER DINNER IT IS 9 - 10 PM. THE DE WINTERS WALK ME TO THE DIRECTION OF MIJE WHERE I EXPECT TO FIND A ROOM FOR THE NIGHT. THE PLACE MUST HAVE ROOMS FOR 200 PEOPLE. I HAVE NEVER TAKEN THE METRO IN PARIS. I WALK EVERYWHERE TO KEEP IN SHAPE :) I ALSO HOPE THAT MAJDOU WILL BE THERE. SHE ASKED THAT I COME BY AFTER MY HAIRCUT. WELL SOMEONE ELSE IS AT THE DESK AND THERE IS NO ROOM AT THE INN. NOTHING! PARIS IS BOOKED HE SAYS. I CALL COMPOSTELLE TO SEE IF THEY HAVE A ROOM. NOTHING! PARIS IS BOOKED. I WALK IN THE DIRECTION OF MY NEIGHBORHOOD ( SEEMS LIKE ) this is a very long involved and AMAZING example of how my FATHER continues to provide and protect. I hope I can take the time to accurately share to some degree just how AMAZING this night ( and into the morning ) developed. NO I CANNOT POSSIBLY!! Kevin at the hotel that was full. He went online and searched for somewhere available. Clerk at the hotel that booked my room while I was walking there. Man Robert on the Metro. Kevin at the hotel that said come back here and I will search for another place for you. Found a (145 EURO) hotel miles away. Mapped the route including Metro. Entered the locations in my phone GPS. It is now after midnight as I walk to the Marie Metro station passing by MIJE and stopping in one last time to see if there is a room open. NO I told you we are FULL. Gave me further direction to the Metro and showed me on a map and offered to give me a map. Found the Marie Motor station. Looking for Line 7 "YELLOW" AND Line 7 has a split. About this time I began to earnestly seek refuge in my Father. I know you always provide. AND You are glorified when I seek refuge in You! English speaking young man getting on the Metro showed me Line 7 Yellow on the map. Young man on the train gave me specific directions on how to know when I got to my stop as he was getting off. I get off and begin to follow my phone gps to the hotel. The route goes through a park. The Park is surrounded by fence and gated and CLOSED. I can see the street layout and begin to work my way around the park thinking I can SLEEP in a park. However I am in PARIS and finding the hotel is a more reasonable option. ( I AM GETTING WHIMPY ) So I continue to find the alternate route. Hmmm there is a sign for a Hotel in a large area with buses. The gate is open and I go to the entrance. Two entrances so I pick one. It is dark and there is a gentleman at a counter. I ask do you have a room for tonight? He says you are looking for a room this late? YES, my room was booked and I am looking for another. ( short version here ) ok Let me tell you what it will cost you for a room here. ( I am thinking $$$$$ ) he writes on a piece of paper and shows it to me. To avoid the shock of telling me I am thinking. It says 23 euro. WHAT? this must be a mistake.He says how would you like to pay blah blah blah I pay and he gives me a key card and tells the room is on the first floor take the elevator. I take the elevator to the first floor looking at my card I am expecting to find a dorm room etc. WELL it is one very nice room with excellent WiFi. OK enough. Our Heavenly Father is Merciful and Gracious beyond compare!!!
