Cambon Paris

... which was great because you could see all the main attractions illuminated. When we got back to the hotel we took to bed for a very big next day.

The following morning we had a breakfast which included chocolate croissants (of course) and headed out for a BIG day of sightseeing and walking.

We started by getting dropped off at the Eiffel Tower, which was so much bigger than I had envisaged. We walked a third of the way up ...

... really good despite having to stand the whole time. It was really cool to see a Shakespeare play in the arena that it was meant to be performed in. Today our museum class was a tour of the Wallace Collection which reminded me of a bigger, grander version of the McHenry Mansion.

Other than that I'm just trying to remember that I'm here for school which is hard with so many distractions around the city! I will update you all next week!

... yeri sanarken (hatta neredeyse gormeden donsen mi diyordum), harika bir mekan cikti. Bir cok aktivite de eriskinleri bile sicirtir (gerci cocuklar hic korkmuyor, ayri mevzu)

Baslica mekanlar:

Adventureland: Robinson'un kulubesi, Korsanlar sahili, Alaaddin pasaji, Indiana Jones ve tehlike tapinagi (biz obur taraftaki roller coastera vay anasini derken, bu pacalardan sizdiriyor), Macera adasi, Karayip Korsanlari (bu da iyi ...

... wealth of readily available information that they do - from expert tourism books to online reviews and laptops to GPS technology. All of these things, however, offer the easy way through the expedition at hand. Sure, a preplanned itinerary may be tried and true, and you probably won't find many gifts from Dionysus at just any random sandwich shop. But it's making that judgment for yourself that separates the traveler from the tourist. The tourist is just that, in town for a ...

... I'm glad we stayed in an apartment; it has been fun "living" like a resident of this city. It's saved us a ton of money, too. I think we've spent far less than we expected somehow, but I'll have to double check that on the credit card statement. Of all the paper money we brought with us, we still have quite a bit. I would imagine it will last us until we leave, and then we may even bring a few euros home. That will come in ...

... After lunch we decided we would be able to fit in a visit to Sacre Coeur and am I glad we went. Of all the activities we did in Paris this was the one I loved the most. The church itself is set in the beautiful district of Montmatre...think of tall buildings with balconies and flower pots and cobbled roads, on a hill over looking the city. Standing at over 83m tall it was just dazzling. The view was to die for and now I know I said that about Parc Guel in Barcelona ...

... Today we went to the Lourve which was excellent. It ended up working out great because as soon as we got inside it started pouring and by the time we left it was clear skies again. Tonight we are planning on going over the Sacre Coeur while its still light out and then then maybe over to see the Eifel Tower at night. Its been crazy. Its been fun. We are SO glad we came to Paris but we are definately ready for Brussels. Avvoire, Natalie

Do Pariza som dorazil po osmej vecer a cakala ma stara cestovatelska rutina zo starych cias: - Najst mapu Pariza a metra - Zistit kde sa vlastne nachadza moj hotel - Zistit ako sa tam da metrom dostat - donavigovat sa az na miesto cinu. ... asi by bolo jednoduchsie si zobrat taxik a po nejakej hodinke dvoch tam byt - v zavislosti na hustote dopravy. Ale takto by ste sa nechali rozmaznavat a nemali nic z praveho cestovania Parizom? Ja teda nie. :-)

... and architecture...or GOLD! We took the tour and then came the fun part of the day...shopping! Sarah and i needed to make a train reservation so we left early to get to the station before dinner. However, me being the genius that I am, I left my eurail pass at the hostel. So we trekked all the way back to the hostel, retrieved it, and went back to ...
