As Krisi said in the last update, there is really not a lot of time to update the more we get into this trip. I will attempt to shortly brief over everything since Amsterdam.
We got to Paris, and it is an amazing city. Our hostel is really nice, and we are sharing a room with some girls who are our age, so it works our great. We met up with Brandon yesterday pretty much right away and went to see Notre Dame, which is beautiful. There was a service going on, too, which was neat to watch. Then, we went to this cute little cafe where we attempted to use all the French we knew to order. We tried some very French foods, though: oysters and escargot! The oysters were just really salty, so not too great. But the escargot was really, really good! I will definitely try to order that again before we leave. Then we hit the town with Brandon and his roommate, Nathan. We just drank some French wine and hung out, and it turned out to be a wonderful night.
This morning we went to see the Arc de Triomphe, then to Versailles. Both very beautiful and both very huge. Krisi just left for the French Open and I am going to meet Brandon as soon as I am done here.
Paris is a dreamworld, though. I love it. I love the culture, I love how proud the French are of their culture, and I love the language. It has been very different than the other places which tended to be very eclectic. I am sad to leave tomorrow morning, but excited to see Switzerland!!
