Part I Paris

So we decided to spend some of our hard earned money and go to England to see my parents. Well since we were going so far, we stopped in Paris first. We left Weston with Joe's family and were gone for 8 days (two of those days were just travel). I have learned several things from this trip: I hate long flights (in a 24 hr period - I slept 2 hours); try not to eat anything off the street (they dont cook their food and it is left on the counter all day long); and ask before buying something we ended up spending 20 euros on 3 pastries! But in all we had a lot of fun. Here is some pictures from Paris.

Us in front of the Eifel Tower. It was cool to actually be there.

We went to the Louvre and saw some cool stuff. Joe trying to do the Egyptian walk.

We took a river cruise done the Siene which was awesome but I was freezing!!

Us eating French food on the street. The restaurants were so fun because they are right on the street.

The Arch de Triumph. Pretty cool.

It looks like you had a lot of fun. So how much American dollars is 20 Euros? I hope those were some tasty pastries.

I love that picture of you in the coat! Too cute.

What a fun trip! I'm totally jealous ;)! What are your parents doing in London? Vacation? or are they there more permanently?

They (my parents) are on a mission there. They have been there since November.
