i love paris. i love love love paris. i may never leave.
our train got in this morning at around eleven and we were in the sketchiest and scariest train station that we've been at yet. and there was no information booth. and there were no signs in english. party. so we wandered around and got day long metro/bus passes... but had no idea where we were going, so we got on a train to st michel/notre dame... there was no info there either, so i asked the lady at the ticket booth and she said to go to the bookstore, so we went to the travel section and started looking for phone numbers, addresses, anything... no luck, but a cute little bookstore employee helped us... we bought a map and headed out, still lost, but so happy to be in paris that it didn't matter. we saw a best western and ran in and asked for the nearest auberge de jeunesse, he said that there were none around, so we had him direct us to an internet cafe, where we found the hotel that we are at right now. we took a bus across town and got a room for the night ... and hopefully for the next few nights.... we asked how to get to the eiffel tower, and lucky for us there is a metro line that runs from near our hotel directly there. excellent. we hopped on the next metro and were there before we knew it, we walked outside and down the sidewalk, then we saw it. and nearly fainted from overwhelming joy. omg. it was a dream come trueeeee. aah there are no words to describe how excellent it was. so excellent.
internet time is up!!!
love!
