Day 32- Paris

We left the hostel in the morning and got to Paris around 2pm because the drive was only about 2 hours. Once we got to Paris we hit the ground running. We had just enough time to drop our stuff and then we headed off the the Louvre! We had about 2 hours in the museum but that was not enough time for me. Ashley, Jenny,Joy, Alyx and me walked around together and first went to the Mona Lisa. It was cool but I think it was definitely over-hyped. After we saw that we decided to hit up the Egyptian part but the museum is so hard to navigate. We probably got lost about 20 times. So we continued to walk around and then tried to go find code of hammerabi. But we didnt have time to find it and needed to catch up with the group outside. The problem was that we did not know where we were and we were leaving for the Eiffel tower in 20mins so we needed to get out of the building. We were practically running through the museum. We get back to ground level and met up with the group. Then the group decided to walk the the Louvre to the Eiffel tower. It was quite a walk but it was very pretty along the way. We took pictures probably every 5 steps getting close to the tower and then we after 45mins we got to the tower. We had a little bit of time so Ashley and I got some crepes and then we met up with the group to go up the elevator. We got in line then got into the elevator. It was quite small but we made it to the second floor. It had some shops and some other cool stuff as well. Then after we stayed for 5 mins we went up to the very top of the tower. The elevator felt that we were going up forever. My ears popped we got so high in the sky. We got off the the view was amazing. It was breezy up there but it did not matter. Ashley and I got some great pictures at the top then walked down to the inside part of the top and it had the distance to all the major capitals in the world. We were 6k km away from Washington DC. We then decided due to persuasion from Jenny to walk down the stairs to the ground it was over 360 stairs haha although it was a bit dizzy it was cool. Then we rushed over to the river at Ponte Nuefe. We were took a canal ride along the Seine river where we could see Paris lite up at night. It was amazing! This is tied for one of my favorite cities so far (Ashley) along with Florence. After taking some night pictures of the eiffel tower we finally went back to our hotel and crashed after a long day.
