I See London, I See France Part 2

The food in Paris was amazing! Ashley, Marisa, and I stopped at a restaurant before we went to the Eiffel Tower and we ordered the cheapest thing on the menu, which was an American-style cheeseburger. We weren't expecting it to come out looking like this:
The French know how to put everything in baguettes, even their hamburgers. 

After, we met up with our class and professors and went on a boat tour on the Sien River. It was beautiful. When that was over, we went and took pictures with the Eiffel Tower until 10pm when it starts to twinkle.



These are some pictures taken on the River boat.

 This is when it started to twinkle. The picture doesn't do it justice at all. It was truly beautiful.

The next day, we got up and bought tickets to go halfway up the eiffel tower. These are some pictures going up.


This is us with our tickets
 This is the view.




After that, we went to see the Catacombs, which was incredibly creepy. There are 6 million people buried down there, and these are some of their bones.

After the catacombs, we didn't have much time so we got a quick lunch. It was soooo good. The French really know how to make a sandwich.
 Of course you need dessert afterwards, so I got Speculos gelato. It was probably the best gelato I have ever had in my life. I am definitely going to copy this idea.

When I was done with the ice cream, I had to say goodbye to wonderful Paris :(.
