When we have
Paris in the desert why go to France? Oh, you want:
1. to eat overpriced poor quality food using dirty utensils and plates
2. to experience what a country of unbathed people smells like
3. to be treated like them gum under a Parisian's shoe
4. to overnight in a hotel that only washes it's sheets once a week (regardless if you're checking in or out) and pay $200/night for it
5. to lose count of the rodents running past the cafe as you partake in a $15 coffee and baugette
Then by all means fly your butt over. Best part is that these experiences and more are available 24/7/365 and are not just reserved for Americans.
