Last Thursday my parents and I took a day trip to Paris France. The only downfall was sleeping on the hotel floor the night before to wake up at 4am to get a cab to the train station and catch the Eurostare to Paris. The perk of it was that I got to go to PARIS FRANCE!! The train was a two and half hour trip under the English channel and through the countryside of France. Once in Paris we didn't stop moving, we jumped a bus around town for a quick sightseeing trip on our way to the Eiffel tower which was followed by a river cruise, then off to the Louvre and our last stop at the Opera. We did it all in one day, amazing. It was really fun to be able to take a trip out of London with my parents and see a whole new world in Paris. I hope they enjoyed it as much as I did.
For my parents it was London in a week and Paris in a day. I hope they survived the week that was filled with endless walking, sight seeing and dealing with a bit of jet lag. The week had zoomed by with classes during the day, followed by sight seeing in London and getting home to get some work done. It was all worth it, getting to see my parents half a world away from home. I might have been more tired then they were. My time in London is going fast and I best enjoy what i have left. I'm planning a few weekend trips away from the city to see some more of the country and hopefully make my way to Dublin for a weekend. Its all so close and rather cheap to get to.
A little of this and a little of that. A week summed up in photos.
