Paris: Terrorist Attack Aftermath

For anyone just wandering out of the Sahara desert or returning from Siberian exile, Paris was rocked on Friday night by a horrific series of terror attacks.  I made this video yesterday in an effort to show concerned friends and family what was going on here in Paris, as well as to attempt to come to terms with what has happened myself:



Apologies for the shoddy camera work, but hey...it was my first time. I was pleasantly surprised by the resiliency of the Parisians. The relative stability has been a great comfort to me as a non-native. Vive La France.
