I loved Paris a LOT

I am back from Paris!

I had such a nice time there. Rog showed me all around the city. It was great.

Here is what we did basically:
Saturday, drove to Paris, got there, went to the apartment and then walked to the eiffel tower. It is only a few blocks away. AMAAAZING. Then we got dinner, and went to bed beacuse we were quite tired!
Sunday morning started with pain chocolate. basically the best breakfast food ever. think crossiant meets chocolate. Then we strolled down the street to the Eiffel tower to wait in quite a long cue, but it was definitely worth it. We walked until you weren't allowed to walk anymore. Quite a lot of steps. Then after that, we went on this thing called the BatoBus, which is a boat tower on the Seine river, and we saw: Tour Eiffel, Musee d'Orsay, St-Germain-des-Pres, Notre Dame, Jardin des Plantes, Hotel de Ville, the Louvre, and Champs-Elysees. Basically really cool.


THEN we went and met Perrine's freind Sophie for lunch for FALAFELS in the Jewish neighborhood of Paris. A lovely area. After walking for 10 miles that day, we had another great dinner, and went to bed.

MONDAY again started with pain chocolate. The best invention of food. Ok, then we went and rented these bikes that they have everywhere, and jsut rode ALL around Paris. For about 15 miles. I know. Me doing any sort of exercise for 15 miles? But I did! 2 days in a row! We went up to Mont Marte and a million other places. Ok im getting tired of writing so you must be getting tired of reading. Here are some pictures!!







This is the view from our apartment window.

Here's me on the Tower.

Love you all and miss you.
