Welcome to Pairs

Have you ever tried to type on a frech keyboard it is so much fun! Not really.

Well yesterday was totally amazing! the day began by traveling to pairs on a train. that was my first train ride ever.  We left from kings crossing which is the famose because of harry potter and platform 9 and 3/4.  After ariving in Pair we took off across town to the heart of the city it was out of this world.  We saw the Louve, and the great arch. 

On our way to the arc we stopped and got lunch at a little place called Jour wich is a small little bachery.  The owner was so cool as he asked us a little about ourselves and laughed with us.  He taught me how to say thank you in french...after several attempts we received our first catch phrase from him..."No Mercy."

We climed to the top of the arch and saw all of pairs from this monument comemerating Napoleon and his victories.  The arc also hold a memorial to the unknown solider which is guarded at all times.  It was breath taking.  From the arch we could see all of Pairs flowing into monument.

After seeing the arch we travel past two musiems to the  Eiffel Tower.  I have been to the top of the Ifel Tower, the ride to the top was amazing, there is nothing like watching the ground leave you behind as you climb over 900 feet. It was amazing.  The view from the Eiffel Tower was literally breath taking. After we visited the tower we went to dinner at the coolest little restaurant, that was one of the most peacful dinners i have ever had, and it was so good!  It was a little restaurant tucked into a monument garden.  The atmosphere was quiet and proper.  It was so much fun.

Dinner found us on the lake taking a tour of pairs by boat.  This ride was amazing as we saw many of Paris's great historical monuments and listened to stereotype Paris music.  The mood was romantic and "Welcome to Pari." Along the way we saw lover's bridge, which is a bridge that lovers visit attach a lock to the bridge and throw the key into the river..."Paris holds the key to your heart."  My wife and I are going to Paris.  Towards the end of the trip all the lights began to hit the city, there is nothing quite like Paris at night.  The boat ride ended with the sparkling show of the  Eiffel tower.  It was somthing that one only dreams of...there are no words to do it justice.  It was a dream in pairs.
