I have never in my life met anyone famous and cool on a public street in Paris (or really, anywhere else, come to think of it). Okay, so I did meet Olympic gold medal figure skater Kristy Yamaguchi once but that was actually business related and I got to say all of five words to her I think.
But SHE did, this friend of mine -- SHE met someone famous and cool, oh so cool. And I am SO jealous because this is the second time she's met someone I've always wanted to meet -- the other time was when she got to meet author Peter Mayle at a cocktail party; he's one of my favorite travel authors who wrote "A Year in Provence" among others.
And this accidental meet-up she had this time? SOOOOO much better and WAYYYY cooler than Peter Mayle! Read it for yourself and see if you don't agree. (Linda, if I didn't already like you so much I'd totally hate you right now. But I'd get over it. Eventually.)
