The French authorities asked me to leave

Why? Because I purchased every pair of shoes in France that were available in my size.  I did.  EVERY single pair.  And I enjoyed every moment of it... until it was time for me to pack my suitcase.   Did you know that you can cram 6 pairs of shoes in your handbag? So...
