So I hate to be cliche, but I will have to agree with the rest of the world on thinking that Paris is the most romantic places in the world. This weekend was everything that I wanted it to be and so much more. Because I dan't have time to go into details, but I will hit the highlights-and let you know everything that we did in 3 days in paris. My friends that went with me are Jennifer, Erica, Maggie and Micah. Then, I had some other of our friends meet us there to participate in other evernts. They are Amy, Cayla, John, Nicole and Sasha.
We saw and explored:
-Cimetiere du Montparnasse
-Palais de Congrés
-Arc d´Triomphe
-La Siene
-Moulin Rouge
-Opéra Garnier-my favoirte building in all of Paris
-Palais du Louvre-WOW!
-Palais du Luxembourg-Sénate
-Jardins du Luxembourg
-The Pantheón
-Notre-Dame
-The Place where Princess Diana died
-Of course, the Tour Eiffel
Some of these places were explored extensivly while others we simply saw from a distance, but none the less, we saw it all. Are you impresed? You should be.
I don't know why the French have such a bad reputation in the states. The French have been the nicest out of anyone from any country that I have been in thus far. They all wanted to help is get around the city easily. When we tried to speak French, they helped us out (by teaching us Frnech) and then clarified in English. It was great! I'm sure it has something to do with the fact that France is run by tourists, but I don't know. They all went above and beyond about being nice. Long story short, I think lots of my friends will be going back again soon. Some for long term, other just to visit.
My new found love has become crépes. Crépes with chocolate, crépes with Nutella, crépes with Jelly, crépes with Cinnamon and sugar, crépes with applebutter and cinnamon. All sorts of delicious crépes. I would highly recommend them from France... ;-) Nedless to say, we tried delicious French food.
All these things + Paris+my birthday+my 22nd birthday+some of my favorite people=a really unforgettable weekend.
