Hey everyone! So I am excited I can finally post in some detail since we are getting ready to head to bed and no one is on this computer! So here are some updates that im sure you have wanted to hear...Our first day we arrived and spent 2.5 hours trying to get out of the airport...we went with the >lets just laugh it off< mood however and it was fine. Once we found our way we went to Disney paris. It was cool, but no where near the coolness of Disney world in the states...not to mention we were dead. We stayed in a crappy little hotel if you want to call it that and it was basically just a place for us to catch up on our sleep. The next day we headed to Paris and took the metro to our next hotel...didnt run as smoothly as planned and we walked around for over 30 minutes on the streets outisde of Paris looking for our hotel..keep in mind we had our backpacks on..once again we laughed it off, especially when we got to our hotel and its amazing. We went to the market and bought bread, cheese, and wine! We ate it on our balcony overlooking a noisy street in true French fashion! That night we went into Paris and saw the Notre Dame cathedral and the Eiffel Tower. It was awesome b/c church was going on and we actually got blessed in the Notre Dame cathedral!! We then walked..yes walked, a good hour to the Eiffel Tower, but it was so worth it! We bougth some wine and drank it in front of the Towel until 11 at night while the light show was going on!!! It was incredible.
Yesterday Benwah, Amys uncle Johns best friend picked us up and showed us around the city of Paris! It was so nice to be with a local who spoke English! We saw the top of the city and where famous artists like VanGogh lived! That night we went on this New Europe Pub Crawl and had the time of our lives! There were over 50 people our age on it who are also backpacking! They recommended some hostels for us and we partied till the wee hours of the morning ending up at the Arc de Triumph!! Its kind of like this is all a dream and I have to keep pinching myself to wake up, but its real!! The adventure has only begun! We leave early early early in the AM for berlin. Our train is over 9 hours long so we plan on sleeping during it! I tried to upload pics but am having a hard time because it takes so long, so i promise i will have them soon! Hope you enjoyed this update and know that we are fine...actually more than fine. We are amazing and having the time of our lives!!! More updates soon, but our next hostel in Berlin is a hostel boat so i dunno if they have internet! Love and miss you all...you must come to Europe and witness this because its greatt!!!!
