The car exhaust is like the smoke of Gitane in the restaurants (except there's no smoking in those places now).Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13290283101378474845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5791261486111154318.post-57920047175516341932010-03-16T08:01:43.210-05:002010-03-16T08:01:43.210-05:00This is quite nice.
