Why are the French so miserable?

I don't like Paris. I will admit being at the top of the Eiffle Tour at night was a highlight, but the food sucks, the service sucks and people are just generally not nice. There was a great moment in Lyon when Shannon was getting fed up with two fussy Australians and told them to just order something off the menu. That is what she did, and it ended up being lettuce (no dressing) and chicken livers. She was not a happy girl.

We have seen the Mona Lisa (which is quite small), the Venus De Milo and all sorts of other famous works of art. We also went to Notre Dame which was very impressive and another bone yard far below Paris in an old quarry. The best part of that is that we went with a 6 foot 8 Kiwi that had to walk the whole 1.7 km route hunched over.

We then took the train to Bayeux, which is fabulous. We had the cutest bed and breakfast, and the tour of the Juno Beach was awesome. It's by far the highlight of France.

I am currenlty missing my Contiki Tour mates, and I even shed a few tears for some of them. Now I am just tired of fighting crowds. I am really looking forward to Iceland.
