DAY 10 EURO TRIP: PARIS, FRANCE
Hearing the scary stories and crazy experiences people had warned us about Paris, didn't stop us from enjoying and soaking up its beauty. Although there were many other Tourists, Gypsies & Beggers in the way, it was a challenge to capture Paris in my Photos.
Views from Montmartre was amazing! Sacre-Coeur Basilica topped the highest hill in Paris. More graff appeared in Paris as it did in Italy, I had to take a photo!
We did a city-driving-tour in our coach... It was hard to appreciate everything we saw while our Guide was taking allowing us to take the quick snapshot from our seats... It was frustrating because there was so much to inhale and absorb... There was so much I missed while taking pics & video footage!!... Damn window seat! Paris is another one on my list to revisit! Endless Galleries & Museums to go to its not funny!
The Eiffel Tower... was I really here!? It was very surreal... It was hard to grasp that we were in Paris, night near the Eiffel Tower!! I couldn't believe how much Gypsies there were!... People selling fake bags & souvenirs with the random cops paroling and chasing them away or capturing them! It was a scene alright....
After the city-driving-tour finished we settled in our hotel and got ready for free-time!... Dinner with some mates we made during the tour. (L-R: Mike, Ellory, Nat, Me, Jr, Karl, Karely, Aiden, Matt & Sarah). It was a Vietnamese/Chinese Restaurant. We were so deprived of Asian food it was not funny! I had been craving it since day one of our Tour! LOL...
It was a good dinner, we were all chatting about what we had gotten up to, the goss & dramas that happened between the people within the tour and all the funny parts altogether. We all seem to be ganging up on poor Mike... LOL... We had wine & beers with our meals which egged us on for more story telling... Bagging out each other on how the tours almost finished and still don't know everyones names!!!...
Funny thing was that majority of the tour ended up having dinner in the same restaurant but at different tables... We were the loudest, laughing & yelling over each other.... 'Happy-times'!...
