Next stop, Paris!

We were so excited to go to France! We took a train from London to Paris, the Chunnel, which was really neat. The whole ear popping thing? Happened to me. It's cool to say I have taken a train under the ocean. 

Once we got to Paris we checked into our hotel and then walked around. It included walking by Notre Dame, and then to the Gaykery (really a gay bakery called le gay choc). They have delicious breads and pastries that my sister discovered on her study abroad. That followed with a bus ride and walk to the Eiffel Tower! We didn't want to pay to go up so just laid in the grass until the sun went down. We also walked across the river and were quite entertained by some street performers. The night ended with a river cruise on the Seine. A perfect day to start in Paris. 

^^crepes, yum! 

The next day was packed. We went to Notre Dame, the Louvre, Musee d'Orsay, the Orangerie, the Arc d'Triumph all while walking the whole city. We were exhausted by the end to say the least. 

^first time seeing Mona

The third day we went to Versailles. It was spectacular and a warm, sunny day! The line to get into the house was huge and took forever, but afterwards we had lunch and rented bikes to ride around the gardens in. The bikes are awesome and I highly recommend it to anyone going to Versailles! 

^^how cute is my sister, Aimee!
