Mon amie!

Wednesday I went back to Paris to get my friend Audra. We used to work together and Norman and became quite close. She arrived in Paris around 2. After she got her bags we headed to our hostel and got all checked in.

We first went out to the Champs Elysees and saw the Arc de Triomphe. She got some money exchanged and she got to practice her French. We also grabbed a little dinner there. Then we went out to the Eiffel Tower because there was no need to wait for her to see that. She had never been to Paris so it was a must. She also took a ride on the Carrousel across the street. We walked around a bit then headed back to the Eiffel Tower at 10 for the night show. It was pretty fabulous, I wont lie.

We went back to the hostel and there was a bar at the bottom level. We ended up getting a drink and talking to some people. We got to speak in French a bit and we met some Australians and British people too. It was a pretty fun night. I dont know how she wasn't passing out from jet lag though.

The next day we went to the Moulin Rouge and Sacre Coeur. I loved Sacre Coeur. Unfortunately, it was super foggy so the view wasnt spectacular which sucked. But c'est France. We took the Open Top tour around Paris and saw some sights, until Audra started falling asleep so we went on back to the hostel for a rest. We hung out at the hostel and met a Norwegian girl and they ended up going out again that night.
It was a really great time in Paris! ..again




Now we're back in Clermont. She's going to study here for the summer. She got moved into her dorm today and is meeting up with the rest of her group. It is so nice to have another friend here. I missed her!
