Trois Américains en vacances

Hi friends! For some odd reason I'm having difficulty posting photos / so I will upload them when I'm back in England . Below is an outline of what we did on Monday.

  • Slept great! We left hotel around 9am and started our hunt for breakfast. There are a few cafes nearby so we stopped in one - really great atmosphere- nice waiters - we had a massive breakfast for 3 of us under €20. 
  • We then decided to go back hotel as it was raining 
  • Mapped out what we wanted to see today and decided a hop on hop off bus would be a great idea
  • First stop we got off on was to see Notre Dame 
  • Really amazing architecture! 
  • Lit a candle for Jane Stamstad (family friend who died accidentally this year)
  • Stopped at a cafe for drinks - I had an Orangina 
  • Next landmark we went to was the Lourve 
  • While walking we stopped at a crepé stand mmmmmmm
  • Got to Lourve - I guess other people wanted to go today as well - Super Packed!!!
  • Bought 3 tickets to go find the Mona Lisa
  • Looked at many other paintings and sculptures 
  • We wanted to take a break so went to a tea cafe for mom and dad/I shared a slice of Oreo cheesecake .... Delicious!!!
  • Got on bus and headed to art de triumph - really famous from some movies :) 
  • After we took photos we headed down to the Champs élysées - high street shopping 
  • Passed by a McDonalds and decided to go in :) you always know what to expect here as most of the food 
  • Found a marks & Spencer's :) mom bought a nice black winter coat for me 
  • Took metro home - stopped at a sports pub for a ham/cheese sandwich 
  • Then off to bed - while trying to figure out the tv - no English channels :(
