Lost at the Louve and most of Paris

 What to say about Paris.... loved it!

Our first day we conquered the Palace of Versaille which was amazing we took a private tour of part of the palace and then headed over to the Eiffel Tower which was my favorite thing in all of Paris to see. Than if we didn't walk enough already the first day we thought we would enjoy a rainy laid back day at the Louve. We arrived early and were the first in line for no tickets but as soon as we started to see the exhibits we realized the shear immensity of the place. We saw the mummies , alot of not fully clothed paintings, statues and sculptures and of course Mona Lisa -we tried to see it all! They said that if you were to walk to every exhibit it would be equivalent to half a marathon! But we didn't stop there we than ran over to Musee de Orseywhere we saw old furniture and my favorite Picasso and Monet. Notre Dome was next which we were able to go through.  After this busy day we were just ready to get on the metro and head to the hotel ,however four stops away from our stop the waiting time started to get longer and people were coming on the intercom but with it in french all that we knew is that we were being delayed. My mom joked that it was a bomb...little did we know. Finally three stops from where we needed to be  we found out that there was a quesionable luggage and that everyone had to get off here! As if we hadnt walked enough we than  now had to walk back to the hotel. My mom joked that it couldnt get worse... than we walked outside ...it was pouring rain! we arrived back at our hotel an hour later and soaking wet.

    The third day we were able to go the the basilica at monte marte which on the way we found a deal on scarves! After lots of stairs and a walk through the building we paid to take another 300+ steps to the top with a beautiful view of Paris.  We saw the famous arch de triumphe. Than headed over to the Eiffel tower  and rode the elevator to the second level, After much persassion i convinced my mom to ride up with me due to her fear of heights. we than took a hour boat trip and  across from the Effiel Tower ate a delicious crepe with Natella and strawberries on our way  home we found that we had to take four different metros to get to our second hotel and while we tried to figure it out we had a nice man tell us he knew were we should go... Little did we know that we had to walk out of the metro to walk to another one! We luckily got to where we needed to go but it took some time and he was kinda creepy. 

 So if you find yourself at the Effiel Tower you must go across the street and eat the most delicious crepe 

you have ever tasted, made right before your eyes. And to note they have the strange hair dryers that kinda look like old telephones.

* so we can't get the photos off the camera so I only have a couple here ya go
