PARIS
1st day
We just walked around and explored
Went to a hostel to ask where our hotel was and we found out they were going on a tour the next day.
Walked around everywhere trying to find a place to eat. EVERYTHING was closed becuase it was sunday. We found an expensive restaurant. Payed 9EUROS for mineral water!! Had egg and ham sandwiches. double decker sandwiches.
Lost my metro pass. Had to buy another one
Went home
Crossed the street and found a pretty bridge. Some crazy graffiti
DAY 2
Went to the Pere Lachaisse cemetary
Saw Oscar Wilde's grave
Saw Jim Morrison's grave
Went on the tour at 11
Learned interesting things about Paris's history
Went to a really cute sandwich shop
Left the tour a little early so we could go to the Louvre
Saw the Mona Lisa
Saw many many beautiful pieces
Went to H&M after that
went back home and ate crepes. banana plus Nutella. MMMMM
DAY 3
Took a train to Versailles
It was raining!!
Went into the palace
it was PACKED
saw the hall of mirrors
Went out to the gardens. SO BEAUTIFUL
