Hey Everyone!

We have been horrible at updating the blog. We want you to know that we are working on a website in conjunction with this blog, and that is where the bulk of our pictures will be available for viewing. We just wanted everyone to know what we were doing, and see a couple of pictures from our trip to Niagara Falls. We will let you know when the website is up and active. Bye for now!

Busiest Day on the Trip!

What a busy day! Wehave done and seen so much in paris. We woke up early and went to Notre Dame, followed by going to the Louvre, Angelina`s for a hot chocolate, out to Versailles, and back into Paris to go to musée d`Orsay. It was an eventful day! Check out the pictures below. Oh, and for once, Evian water is just about the cheapest drink you can get.


This is a picture of us just before we went into the Louvre. It was a,awing to see all of the major works such as Venus; Cupid and Psyché, and of course the Mona Lisa.




This is a picture of us drinking liquid chocolate at Angelina`s. It is the BEST hot chocolate we have ever had.




And finally, this is a picture of us standing in front of the huge palace at Versailles. It makes a normal house look like living in a cardboard box.



Au revoir for now!

Bonjour!

Well, it has been an eventful day in Paris. We cannot get our computer to connect to the wireless network here at our hotel. So we are experiencing French keyboards, in their full inverted weirdness. To give you an idea how weird it is, you have to shift to use period, the comma sign is where M usually is, and the worst one is A ad Q are switched.


Below is a picture of us on top of the Eiffel Tower. It was wonderful to be at the top of the tower and see the bulk of Paris!



Below is a picture of us across the river Seine overlooking the Eiffel Tower. Shortly thereafter we ate a wonderful Nutella Crêpe.



We will try to do a video update tomorrow. Au revoir!

Tuesday in London

Well, our hotel is in the buinss district. It was a holiday weekend the last few days, and today was the first day where everyone is going back to work. The area has been dead everyday but today. It was packed! We were able to brave the crowds and got out to see the changing of the guard in front of Buckingham Palace, and the British Museum. Check out the pictures below.

This is a picture right outside the Westminster subway stop in London. It is a classic picture spot.



This is a picture of the troops marching for the changing of the guard.



This is a picture of us waiting in front of Buckingham Palace awaiting the ceremony for the changing of the guard.




This is a picture of us standing in front o a false door to an Egyptian Tomb that can be seen in the Egyptian section of the British Museum. It was so much fun!




Off to France now!
