Yo. So yesterday we arrived in Paris and after exploring a bit for some towels and some ping pong, we ended up on the front lawn with some Parisians. Just kicking it. Mir and I slept way in today which was nice cause we were super jet lagged/ tired from the flight and all that but we did manage to get to stay awake to 11 PM which helps. Then today was spent getting some food for lunch, going to see Notre Dame (absolutely beautiful), then the bird/flower shops which were pretty fun, then to the Louvre cause it's free on first sundays. We saw the Ancient Egyptian exhibit plus the statue garden (which was much more impressive honestly and gorgeous). Then dinner at an Italian place, and gelato for dessert. They put the gelato on the cone like a rose. It was incredible. We just wandered around to see what we could see after that, and we found the church near St Germaine but I forget it's real name (sorry Laura), and it was incroyable as the French would say. There was a statue of the Madonna with child that'll blow your mind. I lit a votive candle there but I was supposed pay 2 euro but only put in 25 cents. Makes you wonder though, the whole Jesus turning tables thing seems contrary to that. Still it was very nice inside and if it helps with the upkeep I'll pay. When I have the change that is. Then we toured the grounds of the Luxembourg Palais which can absolutely take your breath away. So pretty. There were statues and beautiful trees and things all over the place. Fantastique. On top of it all, the thunder tied the series which just is the cherry on top.
