pictures...

....to make you jealous.

I brought them these t shirts from Fort Worth, Tx. They love them!
They have Haribo but no gold package. Sad day! Although I have tried the blue package and they're pretty good!
The Tour Eiffel under construction :-(
The ridiculously long line to ride the elevator up the Eiffel Tower at 8:45am. It was several hours long. Hello tourists!
My view all morning.
If you look closely you can see a police man on his bike chasing a guy...the guy is one of the illegals who sells dumb stuff all over the city. It was entertaining to say the least. 
Proof that I do exist. I walked from the Eiffel Tower to the Louvre in the sun and the line to get into the Louvre was too long so I found some shade and enjoyed people watching again. 
What a hard life. Grabbed lunch and ate in a parc. 
Antoine :: loves his dessert!!!
This girl melts my heart! We may not speak the same language yet but is she not the cutest thing you ever did see? And what does she need an icecream cone that large? haha.
Dessert after lunch, another French thing I am enjoying, dessert with every meal :: It was a plum quiche I guess you could call it. 
I'd had the majority of my meals here! Divine!
Play-do anyone?

The one thing I was going to add... another difference between the US and here. You don't hug here. I was given a lecture on hugging in France a while ago and I know not it is not socially acceptable for whatever reason and as much as I do not like that, I will have to accept it! But, they do kiss! I know a lot of other countries besides the US kiss, but to me this is pretty foreign. I mentioned earlier that yesterday evening I was at a birthday party and I must've met 20 people, and I had to kiss them all. Needless to say I'm getting used to a guy kissing me without even introducing myself yet. haha. I'm actually kind of liking it! haha.

Everyone have a great day! I'm off to church in the morning...in French! :-)
