J'aime le Francais


SOOOO, its been a while. Sorry.
I've been working hard on getting essays done, and rehearsing for classes, and packing. I am moving out of my house into Clapham on sunday, and ANNA IS COMING
(this is her on the left)

























We are going to be annoying tourist for a week. Its going to be awesome.

SO this past weekend, we went to PARIS!! WHOO
Here's the thing though, to get there, we had to take a ten hour bus trip. which was aweful.
Here is us before:


























Here is us after.


























We got there at 7am. Our walking tour was at 9am. We chilled in the hotel, and had some breakfast (where that picture was taken)
The walking tour was actually really good. I learned some new things about paris. And was really tired.















































































































Then we grabbed some lunch and went back to the hotel to take a nap.

After our nap we went to walk down the champs elysece. It was all decoracted for Christmas. Beautiful.
























And Had some dinner.


























Then we walked under the arc de triumph



































and then headed to the Tour Eiffel.

Then we headed home, and went to sleep.
The next morning, we woke up, and checked our bags, and headed out to enjoy our day. We headed to the Louvre because it was free day, and waiting in an insane line for about 1 hour (awesome considering it went all the way through the courtyard with the pryramid and into another, and all the way around it.) It was awesome. Here's some cool pictures I got.











































































































































Then we went toward the Tour Eiffel, and got some pain and fromage (bread and cheese) on the way.



































We took some cool pictures outside and then tried to go up.

























The line was insane though, so we decided against it because we had to make our bus home. We went back to the Champs Elyse and got a waffle. YUM.
Then we went home. It was a great weekend, minus the insanly long cummute. But I had a great time. I would really love to live in Paris in the future. I hope it happens!!

This week has been busy. I'm packing and finishing my script, getting ready for ANNA!! I plan to finish the script tonight, and then one of my last two papers tomorrow, and pretty much be home free for the rest of school!!!!!
