Day 1: Thursday (evening) March 4
my first flight in europe... so exciting! I think it's so cool how in Europe you can be in a completely different country with a completely different language and culture in just a few hours! We left Madrid at 4:30 and by 7:30 we were in France! Woooh!
cloudssssssssss!
in the taxi to our hostel... it's clear that I've matured a lot since being in Europe..

dancing at a club in paris! just want to point out that we were the only sober sallys in the club, but probably had the most fun... wooh Americans!

only best pastry store in all of france... no lies! The deserts didn't even look like food... they were too pretty!
we finally made it to the eiffel tower and there were some crazyyy awesome break dancers (as you can see behind me), so we stood there and watched them for probably 20 minutes, they might have even been more interesting than the tower itself haha!
jumping with the tower!
zee eiffel tower and me!
my pastry! we enjoyed them sitting under the eiffel tower.... so french. :)
When the sun went down all of a sudden the eiffel tower lit up and started flashing and sparkling and blinking all the lights, and it was so awesome and exciting!!!! In fact, it was so cool that I yelled "WOAHHHHH!!!!!!" really loud and lots of people stared at me like i was some crazy foreigner... hehe but I am, so oh well! Anyways, this was probably the highlight of my night (no pun intended.. hehehe)
that tower is sure nifty.
Day 3: Saturday March 6 (MOM'S BIRTHDAY!)
Remember Quasimoto? You know... that hunchbacked man who lived in the belltower of an enormous French cathedral? Well, on Saturday March 6th I was fortunate enough to see him ringing the church bells... I saw that gypsy Ezmeralda too... no lies people.
NOTRE DAME CATHEDRAL!!!
It was SO big! and SO beautiful!
