Paris


Cassie and I on the train to Paris.
Goodbye London. Hello Paris! We were out of our hotel and on the tube at 8 am! West Kensington to Westminster on the District Line transfer to Jubilee Line to Waterloo upstairs to Eurostar and in 3 hours we will be in Paris. I’m on the train now typing this so I will have to add more when we get to Paris. The rest of the train ride was pretty uneventful and we arrived in Paris at 2:30 pm with no problems. Out of the train station onto the streets of Paris to find that our coach hadn’t come. Next thing we know its 6:30 pm and we’re getting onto taxis because our coach never came. That’s right...about 4 hours of just sitting on the streets of Paris. Good time to see the bums and the gypsies at their finest. Really it wasn’t that big of a deal and to be honest I thought we were only there about one, maybe two hours. We passed the Louvre on the taxi and some other things and got to our hotel and settled in nicely. I can see the Eiffel Tower from the window above my bed and you can also see it if you stand outside of the other window and lean to the left. We like to live on the edge. :P We are now down to 3 room mates in a decent hotel room with our own bathrooms and new towels everyday! Next order of business was food at a nice Italian restaurant by our hotel. And then again sleep.
