ANNALISA’S FIRST VIEW OF PARIS. Annalisa, about 12 years old, was going to Europe for the first time. She was excited to go to Paris, partly because her mother had told her for years how wonderful it was. We took off from Kennedy, arrived early the next morning, and Annalisa was in a taxi going in to Paris. After a while, she turned to her mother, dismayed, and said that Paris looked like what we had seen when we left. And of course the area near Kennedy looks a lot like the area near the Paris airport. Soon we arrived in the magical Paris.

One of my first memories of the city is riding with you in the cab from the airport as well. I remember driving past Notre Dame and being really upset that it was covered in scaffolding.
I had also just seen Disney’s version of The Hunchback of Notre Dame, which made the cathedral look like the biggest building in history.
