A Day of Wonder and Excitement

Today was great. Me, Victor (Asian), and Gabriel (puffy cheeks, got his wisdom teeth taken out this weekend) went to McDonald’s (second time since Saturday…yay for globalization), then went to Parc Monceau (this sweet Park we go to) and hung out in the grass for an hour. It was a really nice day, and I tried to retan my feet (I wore my Chacos for the first time today and realized how quickly you can lose a tan). It was very relaxing, and also very fun to hang out with my friends.

So I told myself this week I was not just going to come home and sit in my room because, well, I live in Paris and there’s a lot to do. So I decided to visit a Museum with paintings of Paris and stuff about Paris. I rode the Métro for about 40 minutes to get there, because it was kind of far away, then I got there and realized that all the city museums are closed on Monday, awesome forethought Brent. So then I took out my trusty map and found my way to the National Archives of France, which I figured would be open, which it was, but only for 20 more minutes. So I used their bathroom and kindly left. I then decided to walk to Ile de la Cité (the island where Notre Dame is located) to visit the other cathedral on the island (St. Chapelle), which I found out was also closed. So great day of walking around aimlessly, but walking around Paris and taking pictures definitely beats sitting in my room, so I’d say I’m going to continue to do that.

That was my day, I bought tickets to visit Tyler today. Lovely. Can’t wait.
