Along the river, Paris

Where my hostel was located there was a river that ran along side it. Near the river was une discotheque or a club as we would refer to it. Outside of the place were groups of kids all drinking and hanging out.  Luckily I had met my new pal Michael, who will go up to anyone and start a conversation.  We sat with a few different groups and chatted with some of the people. I eagerly listened to the conversations in french and every once in a while would add my two cents, in broken french or english. Hey, I'm trying!
