Tuesday. o.0

Okay, so this is my second day in France. ^.^
We got up pretty early, and had breakfast at 7:30. I don't remember what I had, don't ask me. xD Then we left to go to the food market on the bus, but we were an hour late and missed it. o.0 xD So THEN we went on a boat trip down the river Thingy. ;\ No, I don't remember the name. xD Anyway, we were waving to all the people on the bridges, and the other boats. :D And we were yelling "Bonjour!" xD There were some Chinese ladies on the boat, and they took my picture lots! o.O; It was weird. xD They were really nice though, and they gave me some PRUNE flavoured sweets! o.O; They were surprisingly tasty. :P Then later on, me and my friends were waving at another boat and saying hello in lots of different languages. I said "Ni hao!" which is Chinese, and they instantly all rushed over asking me if I spoke Chinese. xD Which I don't. o.e;
This is the boat. :D You can see the Chinese ladies in the background, and the Eiffel Tower! 8D

This is a picture of the decoration on one of the millions of bridges we went under. :D Yes, that's real gold.

After the boat trip, we had a packed lunch in the park. :D THEN we went up the Eiffel Tower! 8D
A view of the tower from the boat.
We went up in a big lift really fast. I thought it was kind of scary because it was crammed full of people, and it went up so quickly. x3 When we got to the top, there were lots of shops. I didn't buy anything in the shops because it was REALLY expensive, but I bought a pain au chocolat in one of the cafés. :D The view was really pretty, and I took two pictures. See;




And then when we came down I took this one;


Then we went to the Notre Dame cathedral. Not to be rude, but I thought it was kind of boring. xD
Then we got back to the bus. 3: The teachers played a trick on us and said we weren't going shopping (That was the plan.), and instead we had to go to a cemetery. xD They were really bad actors. .-.
Then we went up a hill and DID go shopping. xD I bought a chocolate crepe (a kind of French pancake), and a t-shirt with a cat's face on it that said "PARIS" in diamanté letters. ^.^

When we got back to the academy, we played a treasure hunt game in French. o.e It was really difficult. xD
