Mercure Orly Aeroport 3m Paris

... feathers, glitter and colour. All sung in french too, so if there was a storyline, i wasn't getting it. But i had a really good seat - front &amp; centre (there was no reserved seating, so was lucky the usher gave me this seat). Prob the best thing was 1 of the girls swims (half naked) with 3 boa constrictor snakes! v cool. And a guy who had the best juggling i have ever seen. <br><br>Taxi'd home about 1:30am...big day out.

... that priests still pray in shifts for the atonement for the deaths during the war and for the massacre of some 20,000 Communards by government troops. It is Romanesque-Byzantine and reminded me of the Blue Mosque in Istanbul, but less clunky and without the minarets. We climbed the stairs and went inside.<br><br>You can't help but notice the mosiacs, especially Christ in Majesty, which is among the largest in the world. No picture taking was ...

... and I talked March 30 - In the morning the group will visit the city Island on foor, including Notre=Dame, Sainte-Chapelle, and Conciergerie. In the afternoon we visit the more famous Le Louvre Museum. Today we got up late cause the clock didn't work. We walk to the metro and rode the subway to someplace and saw the Fountain Saint Michel. The we walked to Notre Dame on the *Ile de la Cite and a mass was going on. It was just ...

... there's a thing where people have bags-on-wheels. It's cute, it kind of reminds me of being back in highschool where we used to make fun of the one or two kids who had their bookbag on wheels...but it's really convenient! People going grocery shopping just roll their bag through the store, never have to get a grocery cart, and never have to buy plastic bags! Les mammies, though, are grannies...slowly moving grannies, walking through the streets ...

... of people on segways speeding by.  She said they look even funnier at night because they wear glowsticks around their necks.  We parted ways agreeing to meet up for dinner the following night.  Since I was in the neighborhood, I decided to pay homage to La Tour Eiffel.  She never fails to take my breath away.  As I was crossing the river ...

... a sunday food market, oh wow the food is so fresh and looks so tasty, we want to buy everything. We walk the stairs to the top of the Eiffel tower, the rain and wind make it challenging, but all more memorable. The views are great. Next stop The Lurve. this museum is so big we could get lost in here for days, is has alot of statues so we choose four pieces that we wanted to see. My favourite is of Psyche and Cupid, (a ...

Finally, after 5 days of Katie being in Paris and 2 weeks of Telma and baby Christopher being in Paris, we got a chance to go into the City, see the sites together while Erlend was at school. I had a wonderful day planned out for the 4 of us. First we headed to... well first we went all the way to Paris and got a McBurger. After our McLunch, we walked to the Louver. No time to go inside ...

... an hour and a half of the city. It also gets very hot in summer, so of course we must return to experience that. The RER train trip was easy both ways, especially with local knowledge, so we knew where to change trains and also which trains to get the next day, Xmas Day, for our excursion to the Eiffel Tower.

... to work out where to collect my luggage, how to find the metro and what tickets I needed to get into the city, everything was in French! (The stuff I learnt in year 11 hadn't kicked in yet!) That evening was spent getting lost in the small streets but seeing some really nice doors. These doors were the entrances to the courtyards that make up the old city. Quite a few were elaborately decorated with floral motifs or faces. I really ...

... on Derby de la Meije 4-7.4 joka on iso laskutapahtuma, jossa vajaa 1000 henkeä laskee huipulta niin alas kuin maali lumiolosuhteista riippuen saadaan ja kisaa kuka eka alhaalla. Tapahtuma vetää kylän täyteen ihmisiä, on telttoja, happeninkiä, bändiä ja menoa aamusta iltaan. Kokemus kertoo, että se on rankka tapahtuma. Valtteria ei päästetä kisaan mukaan, koska se reikäpää laskee kuitenkin niin kovaa, että ei nyt sitten vaan sattus mitään... me otetaan siis ihan ...
