Paris!
We made it to Paris yesterday afternoon after a bus, plane, bus and then train. It will be nice to be in one city for a few days...my tour starts here in a week. The day was kind of a bust seeing as we didn't get out to get food until 10:30pm and of course there was nothing still open, but we managed to find a little french restaurant that we couldn't afford and went in for some cheese and wine. We were the very last people in the place (the cooks had already left, too) and we had been drinking and talking about what a crazy day it was and we were laughing so hard be were both basically crying and this really handsome guy came over (turns out to be the owner, a guy from Italy) to ask if we were okay because I guess it looked like we were upset...due to the crying. We told him what had happened that day and said we had just gotten in from Ireland and asked what we should do. He said we were coming with him, it was his friends birthday and we were going to this club on the Champs - Ellysee (I know I spelled that wrong). His friend was equally as handsome, owned another restaurant in Montmarte, the area of Paris we are staying in, and was from Italy. We drank champagne and had the most amazing time! Definitely not what we expected our first night out on Paris. We are maybe going to meet up with them again tonight to go out, but we will see what happens. We went to the Eiffel Tower today and ate sandwiches in the park - a pretty great day. I think tomorrow we are going to try to head out to see Versailles, but the best times we have had so far have been unplanned. I will try to add some pictures again very soon.
