Paris in a Nutshell

Before I write anything else: I'm halfway done in France! Then I'm off to Italy with Rachel!

Eiffel tower at night!

Hall of Mirrors in Versailles = Dream come true/ Bucket list check

Now, I did so much in Paris that I cannot write in detail about everything. I will say my favourite things were the Opera and Versailles though.

Here is what I did in the five days I was there:

THURSDAY
-arrived
-saw Pantheon
-saw Notre Dame
-went to my hostel
-met up with Michelle (my friend from Quebec)
-went to the  Eiffel Tower and had dinner beside it
-met a girl named Golf
FRIDAY
-went to Versailles with Golf and Gina
-showered at Michelle's hotel (the hostel's shower was disgusting)
-went to Arc de Triomphe (so much larger than I had thought!)
-walked down Champs Elysees and saw the Swarovski Crystal stairs (on my bucket list)
-went to McDonald's at 12 in the morning
SATURDAY
-went to La Louvre for 5 hours
-walked down Jardin de Tuileries
-walked to place de la Concorde
-went into the Madeleine
-went to St. Augustine chapel
-went to Sacre Coeur (church) and ate my first Nutella crepe
SUNDAY
-went to the catacombs of Paris
-walked through the cemetery
-went to Saint Chapelle (church)
-sat in a park for a few hours
-met some people at the hostel and went to the pub
MONDAY
-went to the Opera...Palais Garnier
-entered Notre Dame (church)
-walked to Hotel Des Invalides (where Napoleon is buried)
-got to the airport, lost my phone, found my phone, lost my boarding pass, got a new boarding pass
-arrived in Toulouse!

So I will update eventually with photos. But I have to go through them first though because I took about 600. Yes. It disgusts me even thinking about it.
HONESTLY THOUGH. HOW INSANE IS IT THAT I JUST SPENT 5 DAYS IN PARIS ALONE AT THE AGE OF 18. so cool! Yes. I'm alive. I did some random things I never would've done. I met cool people. I ate food. I'm so blessed. Even though it seems like I've seen everything in Paris, I am looking at the guidebook and keep on saying, "Darn! I missed this, and this, and this."

Ah Paris. So beautiful.
