American in Paris

Hi.

Paris has been unbelievable... really. There is no way to describe it unless you come here and see it yourself.

The bus to Trier, the train to Luxembourg and the second train into Paris all went well... for the most part. We were sitting in someone elses seats for part of the time and all of a sudden a lot of French was being spoken at us... but we got it figured out. Kyle was there to meet us at the train station, yippeee!! And we took the Metro right to our apartment. Oh, that's right. We have an apartment in Paris. It might just be the coolest thing EVER.

We spent the afternoon walking around, just looking. There is so much so see... my camera was in my hand but I could barely take pictures... there was just so much. We walked down the Seine to see the Louve and Notre Dame, and went inside. I can't wait until I can put pictures up... there really aren't words to describe it.


We're cooking for ourselves and last night we sat around drinking wine and eating chocolate. HELLO! I'm in Paris!

Today was busy, we spent hours at the Eiffel Tower and then went to the Mueseum d Orsay and saw the Impressionist paintings. Oh. And now we are in an internet cafe about to meet up with some Hamline Friends for dinner!

All is well... more later!

what a great description. i am so glad you feel okay. everything in paris was built to be beautiful, no? and notice: no powerlines! (they're all underground).
watch out for groups of children on the metro. no joke! don't let them bump into you.
love jacob
