free tour

Tuesday, February 17
(One of the greatest things about France-- crepes! And Nutella, which I had never heard of before Europe. I am now a devoted fan!)

We found a free tour in Paris...naturally, we signed up. For four hours, Crazy James (he was on Big Brother) led us around the city. We saw just about everything, so here is a taste!

He had a pink mohawk-- thus, if we got lost, he was easy to find!

We met at the Fountain of St. Michel- there were a ton of us!

While it was hilarious, I would call our tour PG-13. But so are some of the statues in France.

It was a blissfully nice day-- gorgeous sky and people lounging by the ponds at the Tuileries Gardens!

Fantastic Rodin statues at the Gardens.

Notre Dame was quite imposing! We were able to go inside while the organ was playing!

James told us about this AMAZING bookstore, Shakespeare & Co. - two stories with books floor to ceiling, complete with ladder. Hello, design for my future living room!

Our reunion was sadly very short, but I met up with Paige and Julia!! They are both studying in France this semester. :)
