As a little boy I was sitting on the couch, next to my little brother and my family. We were all watching <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Louis_de_Fun%C3%A8s\">Louis de Fun\u00e8s<\/a>. It was a <strikethrough>series<\/strikethrough> movie called something like &#8216;<a href=\"https:\/\/es.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/El_gendarme_de_Saint-Tropez\">La gandarmes de Saint Tropez<\/a>&#8216;. In French with subtitles (with would normally take away any interest I would have), but with Louis is was different. I remember 45 minutes of hilarious situations, ridiculously funny solutions and mayhem. We were direct fans, and watched all the shows. I think in my subconciousness I connected France with the sense of pleasure and enjoyment. To this day visiting France makes me recall the feelings I felt as a little kid, watching the show. I look forward to visiting France more than any other place, just because I get a dose of happiness in advance.<\/p>\n<p>The three kings arranged for a special gift this year. A puzzle, with a message on the back. After completing the puzzle the kids had to turn it around, and the gift became clear. This year the kids get a great adventure, and will visit France, to spend a couple of days at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.disneylandparis.com\">Disney park<\/a>, and a couple of days in <a href=\"https:\/\/es.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Par%C3%ADs\">Paris<\/a>. We are not going with just the four of us, but we wil go with a big group of friends. 7 kids and 6 adults. I suspect it will be lots of fun and excitement.<\/p>\n<p>We plan to go in June, so I still have time to practice my &#8216;Louis de Fun\u00e8s&#8217;-French a bit. Finally I will be able to use my standard\/favourite French vocabulary.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; &#8216;La summicion sil vous plaid&#8217;, the bill please<br \/>\n&#8211; &#8216;Bonjour&#8217;, good morning<br \/>\n&#8211; &#8216;un vin avec fromage avec un crossant sil vous plaid&#8217;, a wine with some cheese and a croassant please<br \/>\n&#8211; &#8216;merci bocoupe, au revour&#8217;, thanks a lot, see you<br \/>\n&#8211; &#8216;Command tu t apelle&#8217;, whats your name?<br \/>\n&#8211; &#8216;Je m apelle Adrie&#8217;, i&#8217;m adrie<br \/>\n&#8211; &#8216;Un chien avec un tres petit cull&#8217;, a dog with a very small penis<\/p>\n<p>Except for the last sentence all my French should be really useful.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I can still remember the situation perfectly.
