Went to the Bastille Market in the morning on the site where Mary Antoinette and the king were beheaded after the Bastille was burnt down.
It was dero central around that area and it reminded me of how zou can walk ust five minutes in any given direction in Paris and end up in a completely different kind of area.
After that we headed up to the cemetary and saw the graves of Oscar Wilde and James Morrison among others.
Back at the station I finally met up with Cameron who has been living it up in Italy for the last month. We had the afternoon to pack in a large amount of sightseeing. First we headed to the Arc de Triompho and then on to the Champs Elysees where Cameron got his first taste of French Cuisine, a baguette he was very impressed with.
We walked on down to the Louvre which looked very different to how I had imagined. The one thing that strikes you is how unbelievably enourmous it is.

That night Cam and I went to the Eiffel tour, and for just 3 euro climbed to the first floor. It was an amazing view, so beautiful
