First stop: Moulin Rouge!


The entire day was spent getting on and off the bus, hearing all sorts of history about the city while on the bus. We were supplied with headphones and put it in our own language; they had about 10 different languages to choose from, showing just how international the city is. This is very common in London, as well.
We got off at a stop after seeing Notre Dame for lunch and to explore a little bit and then got back on and went to the Pantheon!

We walked down the street that the Pantheon is on and found Luxembourg Gardens!

After our great, long, busy day we got a bus back to an area near ours and walked the rest of the way to our hotel. Everyone got ready and we went out that night and met a Paris college student whose mother was born and raised in Milwaukee, Wisconsin! How random, right? His name was Sam and he and his friends hung out with us for the rest of the night. They all spoke very good English and we ended up meeting more Americans who were studying abroad in France at the club we went to. It seems as though there are more Americans outside of the country than in when things like this happen!
Sunday, most of the girls had an early flight so we got up and checked out of our hotel and they went to have some lunch and headed to the airport. Heather and I had booked our flights for a little bit later as it was cheaper at the time, so we spent the day at the Louvre!

After our stay at the Lourve, we went to the airport and finally went back to London. The trip seemed so long yet so short. It's funny how that always happens. I do, however, have an incredibly increased amount of respect for those people who travel around for months. We met so many people who were taking off the semester to travel the world in Rome, and they had my envy and now so much more respect.
The trip documenting is over, but come back again tomorrow for one more fun post on it!
