We are in Paris! Home to the Eiffel Tower and the most ridiculous Abercrombie and Fitch store you've ever seen. With boys wearing denim jackets and matching slicked back hairstyles, the store opens with giant black and gold gates that lead through a large hedge-walled pathway and then to even bigger black and gold doors into the actual store. Besides that though, today we landed in Paris ahead of schedule. Like normal, we had to bide time until check-in, so we found the usual Starbucks. This one didn't have good wifi, but we were both content to relax and read our books for awhile. After checking in, we dropped our stuff and left to explore. We saw many important buildings on the way to the arch and then stopped for a quick early dinner before making our way to the Eiffel Tower. It w beautiful out, great for taking pictures and exploring. It was also pretty easy to walk around the city, though the subway system that morning took some getting use to since it is all in French. After the Eiffel Tower, we wandered back to our hotel, stopping to grab some more food along the way. We're now getting ready for bed and to catch up on some of the sleep we lost last night after having to be up at 5am. Tomorrow we plan to go to the art museum and grab some. Final souvenirs before we catch the train to London in the evening (and ride it under the ocean!). For now, off to bed to rest our legs and feet that start hurting earlier and earlier in the day as our trip winds to a close!
