We've been on this crazy trip for 2 months now and it also happens to be my Dad's brithday today. So, here is a photo update on our trip with a special slant towards dads that are also economists.

While visiting the Louvre this nice lady statue gave me some flowers. Thanks, statue!

But she made me give her a foot massage. Fair enough, we all know "tit for tat" is the best strategy for the prisoner's dilemma.

I've been impersonating a fair number of statues on the wall, just like all our childhood trips.

I even got bug in on the act.

Your patience and love for our fine dogs served me well while shopping in Spain. Dogs and husbands have to stay outside while the women do their shopping.

And of course the many cultural events you took us to taught me the benefits of the occasional ballet move, like this one in San Sebastian.
