"Catch me if you Cannes!"-Flick Chick's day before the start of the 63rd Cannes Film Festival!!

Bonjour Mes Amis! It's your Flick Chick at the 63rd Cannes Film Festival, living the Lifestyles of the Soooo-Not-Rich and Not-Soooo-Famous. It's May 11th- the day before the BIG shindig (Festival de Cannes runs from May 12th- May 23rd 2010) and apart from trying my darndest to live up to the tres Français name my parents bestowed on me (Did you know that St Geneviève is the patron saint of Paris?) by impressing no one with my spattering of secondary school French, I've also been busy taking photos of everything in sight. Hey, it’s all in the name of journalism ok. To document both my excitement, as well as show you what people who are not Russell Crowe /Cate Blanchett /Woody Allen do just before the madness of Cannes Film Fest descends. Now if you would indulge me...
