Adventure to Paris
Our trip to Europe was great.
However, we did cut it a few days short.
(Only because, we were exhausted from the fun, and missed our house, and Murphy, of course)
I guess I will start off with the beginning.
The start of the trip, was "different."
On the plane we sat next to a man, who probably just wanted company, but loved to tell stories of when he was a boy. Even though I was annoyed at first with his being there, we were totally entertained the whole flight. He talked from the time we took off till the time we landed.
Europe is so much different from the United States.
The people over there are just amazing...its kind of hard to explain.

Everything that's done in Paris is done later than here. Like normal lunch is about 1 or 2, and people don't eat dinner till 8 or 9. The night life is incredible.
My favorite thing about Paris is the club that we went to, Duplex, the first night. It's normally a restraunt but Friday and Saturday nights they turn it into a club. I think that it was used for a subway was or something because you walk down like 2 flights of stairs and you end up underground.
They mainly play disco music which was amusing to see Bryan dancing too. It was a blast.
The next morning we slept in after our late night adventure. Our hotel was nice. We stayed at the Timhotel Opera Madeleine. The hotel was 7 stories high and had a great view. (The pictures are coming soon.)
Of couse, we had to see the Eiffel Tower, which besides Bryan's fear of heights, wasn't fun at all. We finally made it to the top, after his protest. The view was good but it's so overrated.
We also made it to the Parc Zoologique Et De Loisirs De Thoiry. Which is mainly a big word for the "Zoo." It was interesting. They also have a "botanical gardens" which is really a big maze, which we got lost in for about 30 minutes. Also, they have "The Mysterious Island" which after a hike and short canoe trip, is an amazing castle that you get to tour.
I had a great 2 nights in Paris.
Before we left, me and Bryan had a romantic dinner at Flora Danica. I think the thing that I'm going to miss the most is the food.
Well I'm ready to unpack, so I guess I'll save the rest of the trip for later.
