Met a girl at the Three Ducks hostel and we went up to the top of the tower together to watch the sun set
final leg of my trip and i must say it will be sad to go. meanwhile i am super excited to be in paris! the new hostel i am at is good too, unlike the milan one. i dont think i am that picky, just some little things can get youdown, like no toilet paper/seat, and mirrors set too high so i can only see my forhead. short jokes aside that is a big much.
tonight i am going to the eiffel tour, and apparently some guy parachuted off it last week? crazy, and me without my own chute! lunch with larry garber tomorrow and the latin quarter, exciting... i am still rusty with my french, i walk around and name things to myself to practice.

le internet. bon!

It's really beautiful to see in person, and you just can't get enough of it, even though you know everyone will get sick of these pics really quick

Paris is Great
Hey if you have time you should try to go on the boat cruise at night. It is really pretty to see everything lit up, and when I went there were dances and performers on the sides of water. Just a suggestion. I am sure you have lots that you want to see. I am glad you are having fun.

bonjour amie! if you get the chance, take a bus trip to Versailles. Beautiful castle, one of my favourites. And be sure to try out a Croque Monsieur - like a grilled ham and cheese sandwhich. Try not to spend too many Euros on the Champs Elysees!! I know you're flying in on the 28th, but when are you back in London (Ontario....!) ?? Amusez-vous bien!!!
