Did you remember this picture
(see the story right here )
YES !!! This is finally happens
Ok... here's the plot
:
Friday 8th of may 2009 :
This time, it's not gonna be a HUGE road trip... because I'm not very far from Paris
Anyway, as usual, I'll have to calculate some stats
Back to root... Darth Nunette will be a part of the story
She was living in Paris before we meet each other.
This road trip is more than a road trip, so let's say it's gonna be a week end in Paris *features* a road trip
On the road, here's
Woinic, the biggest wild boar (razorback) in the world (14 meters long!)
... nothing special on the road... we are very close to Paris now... wanna meet Mickey by the way?
Arriving in Paris... on its famous "boulevard périphérique" : it's a road that allow the cars to make a ring around the city, on its external border...
It's a little bit early for the meeting with the seller, so let's go inside Paris... it's time to eat ... let's go inside our favorite area : "Le treizième arrondissement" or "China Town"... Japanese food
Note : Because it's a road trip about 'Voltaire'... I've the permission to put some French words here & there
Ok, let's go to the seller now... I set my nav car system... and it decides to make us drive in the heart of Paris... why not
Hey? What's this?!!!
Opsss... sorry Honey... I just want a picture of the "L'Arche de Triomphe"
This is "La Defense"
Ok... we are very close from the seller now ... one more castle and...
...here we are
The seller is extremely nice & kind... he explain me everything on this pinball
Everything has been cleaned recently.... see
I'm very happy to finally find the BEST pinball I've ever see & play... I'm in love with this Cirqus Voltaire
Let's load this baby now
Well... loading pinballs is not something I'm familiar with... Let's think first ... how to put a pinball into a car
Fortunately, the seller is THE man for this ...
Now, the worst part... money !!! I prefer not to do this, and I ask my wife to do it for me
Did you notice on the car? I love road trips ... always good surprises
Deal done now
Because this is not only a road trip, we are not going home now... let's go now to the Nunette's family house... but what to do with this valuable pinball inside my car during the week end in Paris ? Let's cover it at least...
Saturday... :
Wake up in Paris
Impossible to get my car, because of the pinball inside
so let's take the car of the wife's family
OK, it's time to meet a 'DLF' member '
Remi 75', in the shop where he's working with two associates... let's go to
NEO LEGEND It's good to see arcade decorations like that
... directly at the entrance of the shop
Here's Remy
Some GREAT items here... see this
100% original & working! Remy plugs it specially for me
NAMCO France proposes them to buy this Puck Man for a big amount of money, but they prefer to keep it
See this Space Invaders
A lot of goodies :
