... help you find a place"; · "I'm too busy to call anybody to help you find a place. Just call some places yourself...everybody speaks English" (which I found out not to be true when I made my first call; nonetheless I clearly understood the dial tone when the guy hung up on me); · "All of Paris is full...you will find no hotel rooms here!"; · "I have my contact on the phone...we are lucky as he has found you a room for 200 Euros (CAD$300 ...

... there were six of us to keep track of. We then took the cruise to the Notre Dame cathedral. Before we went into the cathedral we sat down to eat some more food at a quaint little French restaurant. The waitress was very nice and taught us how to pronounce the food. I had my first crepe that was filled with cheese and it was delicious. The cathedral was beautiful and we saw part of a service being ...

... s on the beach and is a walled city with everything close enough together to walk everywhere. San Malo is even more like the picture I had of a small French town than Caen because it's on the beach, has cobblestone streets, street performers, and all the restaurants have large outside dining areas. That may seem cliché, but I loved it the few days we were there! On Thursday we traveled by ferry to the island of Jersey which, though off ...

... It's pretty cool, people really do kind of push and shove to get good deals. I havent been doing any shopping because I am not really dripping with euros, but I did pick up a cute little white cotton summer dress for 20 bucks because its sooooooooo unbearably hot here! Seriously, almost 90 degrees today. And that may not seem like a big deal but France doesnt believe in air conditioning or ice cubes in drinks so there is no refuge from the heat ...

... to name and shame the moron... apparently he's a dude from China who is living in Germany and drives tourist vans around... unfortunately for him, (apart from his brain damage) is that in France, its pretty standard to bump other peoples cars to get into the car parks. - Anyhow, my gruncle drove is to his house first where we dropped off our bags. Before we could make ourselves comfortable, we were off again to the souvenir shop that he owned which happened ...

... the 284 stairs we caught our first glimpse of the Eiffel Tower, but it was so foggy, that we could only see about half :(. It was still pretty spectacular though! At the outside of all these tourist attractions there a gypsies everywhere that you go. Evidently I looked like a good target because they always flocked towards me and me being me, always felt a little bad for them but by the end of the weekend Sarah taught me to just look down and say NO! haha! Next, we ...

... said that once Mary got to the market she thought we should cancel it because it was too much of a hassle and it was too busy. Once she got home, Stephanie said that she was in a bad mood and said she wasn't going anymore. Stephanie hauled all the food and pans to our apartment on the subway. Once she got there I cooked eggs and bacon for those that were left and we ate it so fast because we were so hungry! We cleaned up and then some of us went to find a ...

... very impressive building inside and out with a crypt full of famous people. And l also found it interesting that it was here that the center of gravity was founded. But one of the highlights for the day and for my whole trip to Paris was our afternoon visit to the amazing Musee d Orsay. This huge converted railway station holds some of the most famous and beautiful impressionist paintings in the world. Janette and l are both huge impressionist fans, in particular Monets work, so of ...

... which was extremely fast for the times and is why the entire structure is Gothic. Most cathedrals started as one thing and as the years dragged on other architectural styles became popular and they just switched back and forth between Roman and Gothic and others (those are the only two I know!). But it had started over 1000 years ago as a small site of worship and over the centuries, and the ensuing Holy arms race as Scott likes to call it, the bishop at the time decided ...
