Subject: Bonjour from Paris!
Bonjour everyone.
How are you all doing? Rob and I doing GREAT! On Monday we went to the
top of the Eiffel Tower and spent about four and a half hours up
there. It was awesome, I took pictures and videos. After the Eiffel
Tower we visited the Arc d'Triumph, I took more pictures from the top
of that and from inside. It was great visiting those two famous
places, I loved every minute of it. When I get home and get all of my
pictures back I'm going to scan every one of them and put them on the
web for you all to see. I'm also going to make a lot of video snap
shots from my videos also and put those on the web, I'm going to make
a whole section on my web site all about my time in Paris. I'm loving
it here and really don't want to come back, LOL! It's VERY beautiful
here, there is no place like this back in the States.
On Tuesday Rob and I did shopping and we watched a movie, Wild Wild
West. It was alright, kind of corny. It was in English with French
subtitles at the bottom, it was kind of weird watching a movie from
back at home while being in Paris. It was neat going to the movies
over here.
On Wednesday Rob and I took the train over to Geneve Switzerland, we
took the TGV which is a very fast train over here in Europe. It goes
about 200 or more MPH, it was a nice rid. We left early in the morning
and spent about a day there and returned to paris late that night.
Today (Thursday) we'll be going to the Louvre, then we'll be going
back to the Eiffel Tower again but this time it will be an evening
visit to the top. On Monday it was a day time visit. On Saturday we'll
be visiting it again during the day to close out our vacation here in
Paris.
Well, that's about all I have to say for now. I'll talk to you all
soon.
By the way, Rob says "Hi" to everyone (for you all who know
him).
