Today we arrived in Paris around dinner time, I still can't believe we're not in Spain anymore, we are starting to realize that we're not going back and it's a little bittersweet. And we've caught ourselves talking to the people here in spanish without even meaning to. Luckily most people understand spanish here... and english! our french bus driver definitely did not like us. But besides him, the french people that we met have all been pretty nice to us.
I taught my friends the basic french that i remembered learning from mom and non, i didnt remember a lot but every little bit helps!
Once we arrived in Paris, we took the metro to the eiffel tower and literally just sat there and stared up at the tower for half an hour. It's absolutely beautiful in person! Every hour for about five minutes, the tower sparkles. So we bought some crepes nearby and sat in the lawn and watched the eiffel tower sparkle show.
Now I'm back in the hotel. We're in the business district so we have a pretty long metro ride to get to all the tourist attractions in Paris, but I don't mind it because we dont have annoying tourists around us.
Tomorrow morning we are going on a bus tour of the city. My camera is fully charged, I plan on taking lots of pictures! I'm going to post a picture of the sparkling eiffel tower on here later too :)
