Well our 1st day touring Paris was awesome fun, except the heat which was intense!
Anyway, we are roasted, and look like cooked lobsters.
We started our day with a nice walk down to the louve from our hotel. We got there just before the masses arrived and were able to get into the museum quickly. We were both amazed by how old, and how beautiful it was there. We decided to head to the Mona Lisa, which was cool, and then head back out and visit all the other cool things in the museum. Some of the old paintings are huge and so old, and the mummy in the Egyptian area was awesome.
From here we jumped on the open bus tour, which allows you to get on and off wherever you want, and we did a full loop of Paris. We made the big mistake of sitting up on top of the bus, but the views were amazing. As we went along we felt like we had to pinch ourselves, as we saw so many amazing places that it seemed like a dream. I guess we were experiencing a sensory overload with all the sights we saw and the noises we heard. it was fun. We saw the eifel tower, notre damme and a tonne of other places. at notre dame we got ripped off by this cafe where we were charged 13€ for two glasses of lemonade.. Hahaha.. You do the math.
We were spent after 10 hours of this, and the walk home to the hotel was long and hot. Maddy crashed as soon as we got back, and we accidentally missed dinner, and we really didn't have lunch. It was just too hot to eat.
Well it's time for another day in Paris
