Ah yes, Paris. City of Lights and worth all the hyperbole that has been heaped upon it over the years. This is an old college buddy of mine and I having a manly man moment on the Champ de Mars near the Eiffel Tower, fitting since Mars (or Ares) is the god of war. This field once housed fortifications for the defense of the city, hence the name. These days, it sees less martial pursuits, although I believe it is still a drill and parade ground for military cadets.
