Paris (Belated)


After getting into Paris very very late at night, we found our way to our hostel thanks to Anne Marie and Nick navigating us about the metro system. Here is a picture of our hostel called the "Young and Happy" haha.
Atleast Nick was happy! I wanted some sleep..
We woke up bright and early and Anne Marie and Nick took a water bus tour, and Mike and I went on a free English tour by the same company that gave us our Munich tour. We both saw all the sights and learned a lot about Paris. There was so much to see! My student visa was able to get me into the Louvre for free, and we were told it would get us in free to Versailles, but the workers in Versailles were not as accommodating with our lack of mastery of the French language.
The Mona Lisa was very secure. And SMALL!
These few pictures really do not do Paris justice.
It was awesome.
The next day, we met up at the Hard Rock
and said our good byes as Anne Marie and Nick were off to Venice.
Pictured: Ice Water
Not Pictured: Cherries
-------------------
Mike and I spent the afternoon at Versailles - which was awesome.
King Louis became King at the age of 5, and grew up very paranoid.
He moved the whole court out to Versailles - all the nobles.
The palace, grounds and gardens were absolutely huge.
