I bought a French Crepe and it was heaven on earth.


Bonjour!
Whatever, I am in Paris right now.
So I love it here.. and I just might not come back, I'll be honest. I love chocolate croissants and sugar and butter crepes. But I have walked around everywhere in Paris so it's fine. Don't worry.  My experience is France so far... It all started on the plane to France. I sat next to a lady from England and she talked my ear off. She was cute as the bees and had a great accent. We were buds. So I didn't get a window seat so I didn't really get a good view of Paris until I got to my hotel. BUT I am getting ahead of myself. I get off the plane, make a b-line to my luggage finding out that I have to find luggage services.. my luggage is lost. No where to be found. Not that big of a deal to me since I was so exhausted all I wanted was a nap. blah blah blah. Long story short I finally made it to my hotel and my whole group was waiting for me. So no nap, no shower, no nothing except to reapply my make-up asap. Then we were on our way, to churches like Notre Dame etc... as we stopped to take a break, I was about to fall asleep a blasted PIGEON POOPED ON ME. At this point if I had not have been in Paris I would have cried went home. So my only shirt was soiled and my already greasy hair was poopy also. We got on this thing called a BATOBUS (boat bus) that showed us different sights. I can now say that I have SEEN the Eiffel Tower. I'll be honest a little overrated. But also I was running on zero hours of sleep. Needless to say by the end of that day I was out like a light. Now I wont bore you with all the things we have done so far cause in the 3 days I have been here I think we have covered all of Paris and walked the entire way. I'll just say this I LOVE FRANCE. Everything about it. The cafes on the street, the buildings, the people and their accents (although, they aren't that friendly.. they are no Jenkins' family) I just love it. Also I love crepes. Did I say that already? 'Oh p.s. uhh no one told me there is NO SUCH THING AS ICE HERE?? It is killing me. After walking allllllll day all you want is an ice cold water but nope. You get warm water. Worst. Except at McDonalds... which I like it here better. Minus that it's more expensive. Gosh Paris is just everything you ever imagined it to be. Sorry this isn't funny. but I am in France and it is pretty, not funny. JK I think funny things a lot but I can't think funny right now.


We went to the Louvre today and it was BY FAR my favorite thing. SO amazing. I saw Mona Lisa among other things but the building alone was mind boggling. I know all you really want are the pictures so I will cut to the chase. :) My next post will be better. I just had to get this one out of the way. Gosh I love it here. :) Everyone be jealous. K love you.
