Bol d’Or — Extra Edition

I messed up!
I missed my flight to Marseille.
I tried to get from Montparnasse to CDG Airport by bus, but it didn’t work out.
So I switched to the train, but it only went part of the way.
As time started running out, I tried taking a taxi, only to find an incredibly long line at the taxi stand.
While sitting in the taxi, I called a French friend and asked him to book me on the next flight, but the result was “fully booked.”
I kept negotiating persistently at the ticket counter, and somehow managed to get the very last seat available.
At that point, I could only consider myself lucky!
The photo shows me drinking alone — partly because I was irritated, and partly because I felt lucky.
Alright then… Marseille awaits.
