Outside the Louvre Museum
Here's the pyramid that we've all read about in the Da Vinci's code. France , what can you say ? Paris even better! It was an amazing experience, it's got such a vibe and buzz about it, it's impossible to describe. I wish I did more French in high school , but our rudimentary french was enough to get by.
I will try to describe our trip , but one must do it themselves to find out.
The weather was a lot like Auckland, rain , wind and sun all in one day, even hail.
The people are different , they like smoking, spitting, talking loud, it's true anything they say in French sounds SEXY even ordering or asking for the toilet.
The food.....ahhhh...... they eat weird stuff, I tried liver and escargots!!!!the snails are a truly unique taste , like mussels and chicken.... but more taste!
The wine now, there's something we really aappreciate , we had Bordeaux wines the whole time we were there, if I had my choice I would have had it in all 3 meals. Delicious!
Paris is definitely a place to visit before you die, but learn a bit of french before going and be prepared to enrich your tastebuds, then you'll truly experince
The Eiffel Tower
A trip to Paris isn't complete without a visit to the Eiffel Tower! some french magic.
As for Paris being Romantic?? em......there was a problem!....we brought along quite a lamp post! (hehehe......Kenneth Lim).
Anyway, just one sleep back in London tonite and we're off to the slopes in Andorra tomorrow morning!
More updates when we get back!
Au revoir!
