Turning down an all paid trip to Paris

[bhank]

Food in Paris is overrated.

Bullshit you can get steak and frites with creme brulee at 1am in a packed restaurant on every corner meanwhile in America the kitchen closes at 9

Get a vaccine. Wear a mask. And still get covid regardless.  Especially now the pharmas have all but admitted the current vaccine can’t stop Omnicron

[LurkerNoMore]

The food in Paris is exceptional.  With the exception of a weak ass protein lacking typical breakfast (that you can work around) and that stupid ass bread that is hard as a damn rock.

Paris is a city. America is a country.

We have cities that you can order food at 1am.

My long term health (or even immediate) is worth more than a free trip to Paris. Ask my wife, kids and Grandson

Are you the same phony "coach" who was complaining about long term COVID and said you thought you wouldn't make it?

Rob, sorry to hear about that but happy they’re both recovering. This virus is no joke. I’m still deal with extreme fatigue even after having it in August. Some days I’m fine others all I want to do sleep. Long Covid.

 My wife fully recovered. Flexicon was dead on about the oxygen levels. We have an oximeter and that’s basically how we monitored ourselves. We literally thought we wouldn’t make it. Right now about a 1/3 of our football team is down with it but most are asymptomatic

Maybe in Kitty Hawk. Lots of major cities in the US have restaurants open late.

I think the food in Spain and Italy is vastly superior to that in Paris. Creme brulee sucks. All that hard sugary layer gets stuck to your teeth and the custard layer is like some kind of lame vanilla Cosby pudding pop. Admit it - you'd rather have a peach cobbler anyway.

Smart move. No reason to risk your life for Paris.

Proud of you Coach. Not many men will stick to their guns and beliefs when it comes down to making potential financial decisions and many relent because they are slaves to money. Keep up the good fight.

Most international airlines will not allow check-in without a Covid passport.

Some airports also do not allow arrival without it.

With others that do not require it, on arrival one would have to probably spend 2 weeks in quarantine at one's own expense, usually in a hotel.

If you are someone who needs to or wants to travel, you have no choice really.

No covid passport to Sint Maarten or Saint Barth’s. Just test 48 hours before arrival and you have to test the day before you come back to the States. I don’t think anything is required in Mexico.

Paris is a shithole you aren't missing anything. Probably the worst city in Europe.

It's going downhill very fast.

My first trip was in 2003. Second trip was 2018.

Saw such a big difference in general across Paris.

France itself remains mostly the same. Beautiful countryside. Good food, nice people until they realize you are an American.

I prefer Germany, Italy or Switzerland.

But if you have never been to France it's worth the effort, just don't spend all your time in Paris. Very overrated.

Not sure what your point is, Karl

is the neighbor obese?   does she smoke or drink excessively?  what type of cancer and what symptoms did she have to get checked for cancer?   I'm curious

She's not obese. Actually pretty athletic (martial arts) Non smoker, average drinker. She started feeling sick a month or so after the vax. Then they diagnosed her with cancer. She is in chemo- all of her hair fell off, etc.
