A Philosopher in Paris



Our Beez is a lover of all things philosophical. Here he is in Paris at the famous Les Deux Magots cafe in the Saint-Germain-des-Prés neighborhood near our tiny little hotel. Les Deux Magots, now a tourist destination, was once the hangout for such intellectual and artistic luminaries as Simone de Beauvoir, Jean-Paul Sartre, Pablo Picasso, Albert Camus, and Ernest Hemingway. 


Beez was doing a little philosophizing and pontificating himself over some lovely wine and an assiette de fromages. In the background you can see my second-favorite Parisian waiter, and the two Chinese figures that give the place its name.
