Today was another awesome day! We did so much and the highlight of the day... It snowed!!!! It was so the best!
We had a productive day. I should have been studying because I have three finals next week, but when I only have a week left in Paris how could I possible consider not going out. We met the group at the Catacombs in the early afternoon. It was our first time going down there and I have to say I am not a fan. It was cool at first. We took our time walking down into the caves and then the bone walls started. I saw those for a good minute and was very done being with them. It is just weird. So Emily and I hurried through the halls and halls of bones and made our way swiftly to an exit. By the end I was feeling slightly claustrophobic and I did not like it.
After that we decided we wanted to go to the Pantheon, but unfortunately I let some one else take the lead on directions and we did not end up there. We ended up at Tulleries Gardens and we made a quick stop at Angelina's. Best hot chocolate in Paris. Some girls wanted to go eat lunch in the Latin Quartier and Trish and I decided we wanted to go and see the Grand Palais and the Petit Palais instead. So we got on a bus and headed over there. It was so cold and I was thinking that we would go and see the Monet exibit. Jesica and Judithe were already and line and had been for an hour and they were only to the two hour wait point, so we decided to nix that idea.
As we were walking away from the Grand Palais it started snowing. At first I didn't believe it. I thought it had to be blossoms or something from a nearby tree, but it kept coming, and coming from everywhere. It was so exciting! Trish and I started jumping up and down and catching snowflakes and all of that stuff that silly girls would do if it started snowing on you in Paris, France. WE walked over to the Petit Palais and we went in. As soon as we did it started snowing super hard. It was so crazy, but it didn't last long and we went over to the Champs Elysees to look at stuff until we were meeting the other girls at the Eiffel tower.
trisha found a super cute hat that I made her buy and I got some cute decorative stuff that I have been wanting. When I come home my apartment is going to be decked out in Paris stuff. I can't imagine not having a ton of this stuff all over! Anyways so I bought some stuff and I am really happy about it.
We headed over to the Effiel Tower and met up with Lexi and Rachelle(Trish's friend). Almost as soon as we got there, it started snowing again. It was so joyous!!! We took pictures and all that good stuff. We split up after that and Lex and I headed home, but on the way we ended up taking a detour. We went to the 'Inception' bridge and we saw the mini Statue of Liberty. It was fun to just be out and with her. I am rarely alone with any one but Ally and sometimes Trish, so to spend one on one time with someone else is so fun! When Lexi and I are together we have so much fun. We are both so loud and completely nuts that we have a good time. I'm sure others get annoyed quickly lol but we have a blast!
I went home and on the way I stopped at the grocery store. I bought some random stuff to get us through the next week and I just thought about how much I have loved living here. I don't love it enough to say that I would want to do it again later in life, but in this setting it has been so wonderful! What an adventure I have had in Paris France!

You can tell I was really enjoying my time down here with the dead people.
