Paris Day 2!

Well it is super late at night so I am going to update this quickly. Today we basically spent the day sight seeing all throughout Paris. Of course the first thing that we did was go and visit the Eiffel Tower which is exactly how you would imagine it....amazing and beautiful. We then bought a tour bus pass and took a tour of the whole city...which was perfect. We got to see everything without having to figure out how to get there ourselves!

The best part was when we went to a little area of the city called Monmantre (probably spelled it wrong there...). Anyway it was this cozy little village built around a huge cathedral. It had tons of little shops and restaurants (one of which we ate dinner at). The cathedral is high up on the hill and has amazing views of the city. It also didn't hurt that there was a very talented guy on the steps of the cathedral playing his guitar and singing in all languages...very cool. Before turning in we decided to check out the Eiffel Tower at night. It was so cool....half of it was lit up in yellow and the other half green (maybe because of all the Rugby activity going on here??) And then every 1/2 hour or so all of these white strobes would go off making it even more beautiful. We decided to go all the way up to the top which was kind of like going up the Sears Tower except you can see everything all the way up there so kind of scary. It was higher up than we expected!!

Well I think the plan is to visit Versaille tomorrow and the castle there and then maybe take the overnight train to Munich. Not sure though....this train thing can be a little confusing!
