Eurotrip Day 5 – Paris
Thursday, June 25th, 2009 :: 11:50 pm
We continue our Eurotrip journey the next day departing London, UK, to our second country, France. In France, we’re only staying in one city just like the UK, and of course it is Paris! For the next four days Paris will be our home and we’ll be touring all around the city.
Paris was definitely on the top of my to-visit cities in the world. Too often you see it portrayed as one of the most romantic and luxurious cities in the world, on posters, billboards, TV, and movies (of course, Da Vinci Code). With a bit of conversational French under my belt and slightly better reading comprehension of the language, I hope that it would come in handy.
Something I’ve always wanted to do when and if I reach Paris – speak with the locals in (poor) French, and have a cup of coffee on the streets of Paris, haha.
One thing I should mention is that there is free admission to all the museums in France on the first Sunday of every month, so that’s basically what we planned this whole trip around. There are way too many museums and sights to visit here, but we kept it at a decent pace, not wanting to rush through anything (learning from our experiences in London – rushing burns us out way too fast!).
Continue reading and we’ll start off the day early at 5:30am departing the hostel for the morning train…

Eurotrip Day 4 – London

Our 3rd and final day in London, May 1st, was just as packed as the previous two. It was literally famous locations after famous locations – just like what you see on TV. Lots of walking along the beautiful River Thames on another gorgeous day.

We started off Day 3 feeling lively and excited to visit all the attractions. After a quick breakfast at Generator Hostel, we departed toward Westminster tube station at 9am, where the famous Big Ben clock is.
