Marie, I still see people fishing along the Seine and wonder if the fishing is any better there is any better than along the Chicago River. I love these vintage Paris post cards.
Hey! I just had "girice" the other day, which are the Serbian equivalent of "goujons."
Did they catch a discarded tire from a 2CV instead?
Inquiring minds want to know....

Eric at Paris Daily Photo had a shot of Mona Lisa, but "Louis" doesn't have to go to Paris to see her!
Fishing is great for the mind, body and spirit! It saves a starving family on Weeks Bay quite regularly!
