HELLLLLLLO PARIS!

Let's be honest...I was least excited to go to Paris...and I loved it the most. I would SOOOO go back right now. The musicians on the metros...though annoying were really cool...even Megan falling on the metro was funny...sad...but funny...the Palace of Versailles was the first place we went...CRAZY! and the art there by Jeff Koonz...really? why?...but whatever...it was crazy...the mirror room where the Treaty of Versailles was signed...and it was pretty cool to go there after we went to the Battle of the Boyne so I already knew a bit about King Louis XIV so that was pretty cool...kinda think he was a prick...but that's just be...you know that divine right crap...whatevs...we walked around Paris for a bit and saw huge important buildings...on our way to the Arc de Triomphe.The Arc is to honor all those who fought for France especially during the Napoleonic Wars, and also under the Arc there is the grave of the unknown soldier from WW1. AFter we left the Arc we strolled over to the Eiffel Tower...got interviewed by CBS no big deal...oh right and it was snowing...it melted right away even before it hit the ground...but needless to say we were not dressed for the weather...and from the Eiffel Tower we went to the Notre Dame de Paris. Which I dont know if you're aware...is really really cool...
The excessive detail they put into everything in these churches is insane...and I found it all that a lot of the alters in Paris had different images other then Jesus on the cross in the back...odd...but outside of Notre Dame is when Linda Lou called and we chatted about how i was sick and that I sounded like death...but totally made my day anyways...we walked around a bit going to a few different churches and then we went to the Pompidou...yeppp...the Pompidou...See?...Anyways...after that we ended up at Les Invalides...which was Louis the XIV as a military museum...and its where Napoleon's Tomb is now...Les Invalides also has a pretty sweet golden dome you can see all around Paris...not really...and Im just gonna say...ND's dome is shinier...but then again...it was raining when we were there...but hey it rains in South Bend too...and let's be honest...we were in Paris...and no visit is complete with out visiting THE Moulin Rouge...yep...anticlimactic...but hey...have I seen the whole movie?...nope...will I? nope...do I know Nicole Kidman dies?...yea...so why watch it?...cause its a great movie...whatevs...Yea Paris is grand...the croissants are to die for! I fell in love with them and baguettes and hot chocolate...yummm...our hostel was also really cute in the residential district so we were like in a small neighborhood and there was tiny markets and bread shops...and chocolate places...and of course a ton of places to get wine...but we stuck to our fanta and vodka since we werent technically allowed to have alcohol in the hostel...we win...especially with our nutella, peanut butter, banana, and pretzel sandwiches...yummmm haha it was actually so gross...but delicious at the same time...but lets be honest...we havent gotten to the best part of Paris...
