Wow the bus trip from Madrid to Paris took like 20 hours! I don’t c y anyone would take a bus to Paris from Madrid, though. If we took a plane it would’ve taken like 30 minutes! Anyways, my legs were completely cramped and I was bored to death! I tried to go on my computer or something but I was too tired to get up. We stopped for 30 minute breaks every 2 hours so that people could get up and walk around. It didn’t really help though, so when we got back in I just listened to my iPod and sat there for the next 5 hours or so. I’m surprised the battery worked that long! But anyways when I got bored I just turned off my iPod and slept. When I woke up I thought we were in Paris but we had to drive for like 3 more hours. I hated that trip SO much! The bathroom had no toilet paper so the bus smelled bad the entire time and nobody opened a window. But when we finally got to Paris I was so tired! And worse, I had this HUGE stomachache! And it got worse. You had to pay to use the toilets! And when I got in, there was no toilet at all! Just some place where you put your feet, and a pipe. COMPLETE waste of money! Anyway, we took the metro to the hotel and it is awesome! I get my own room, and my own bathroom, a TV and we get access to the executive lounge! The place with Internet and free food! And there’s a gym! I haven’t worked out in weeks! It felt good to lift weights again! Anyway, after we got settled into the hotel, we went to some parks. We went to this garden of Luxemburg. It was pretty cool, but all we did was sit there and take pictures but other then that it was ok. Then we went to some building that I don’t know what it’s called, but it was cool. Leah was complaining A LOT, though. But then we went to McDonalds and Leah was BEGGING to go back to the hotel because she claimed that her knees hurt.
The next day we went to a bus tour thing, and it was cool. The first time I’ve ever been on one of these (I think) but it was cool. We saw a lot of monuments and statues that were gold and big. We also saw some bridges. We also saw Notre Dame and a The French Institution. That was pretty cool. After that we went to the EIFELL TOWA It was HUGE! Oh yeah and there was this guy who was climbing it! He got up to the 2nd floor though, and started throwing white papers down. I don’t know what they were but when he got down, he got arrested. But then when the police opened the tower again, and EVERYONE started running to the entrance to be the first one in line. Mom made us walk. I don’t know why but she wouldn’t let me run to get a good spot in line. We had to go through an hour of people complaining about other people cutting in line, and mothers whining about how they should get in first because they have kids. But once we finally got to the 2nd floor, it was amazing! We were really high up! And then we went to the top of the tower, which was twice as high! It was amazing how the building could last this long! Then we got to take the stairs down! Leah was complaining of course, so we took the elevator to the 2nd floor and took the stairs down from there. But Mom got tired and we stopped at the 1st floor. Then the guy that cleans the tables started spraying but the wind blew It and it went into some dudes face, and he started yelling at the guy, who was probably around 18 years old. I wanted to yell in his face for being such a pussy, but I could only sit there as he demanded another water, because he thought the mist got into his water. What an idiot. Anyways, once we got off of the tower we went on this tour on a boat! We went under like 25 bridges and it was fun! We kept waving to the other boats that passed by and then when we were finished, we just went back to the hotel. The next day, we went to Notre Dame! It was really high and they didn’t have an elevator, so obviously Leah was complaining. There where 400 steps to get to the top! Once we got up there, we realized how high up we were and mom was all like “OH MY GOD WE ARE SO HIGH UP!” So after that we went inside the other tower and it looked really old and that it wouldn’t hold all these people without breaking down! So it was pretty freaky but I managed to survive LOL. Oh, yeah and I got to touch the bell, but it was b4 I saw the sign that said “Please Do Not Touch Bell” so at least nobody saw me! So after that we went back downstairs and I was the first one down, and I had to wait for Mom and Leah to get down. They took FOREVER. But what was funny was that when I got out, the automatic door just closed on me. I thought I took the wrong exit or something and that I was trapped out! But then when everybody came out I was pissed off because I was all like “Hello? Is anybody there? I’m locked out! Help!” And that was just pretty funny. After the Notre Dame, we went to the Louvre. The Louvre is an art museum that has a lot of important artwork like the Mona Lisa! We went straight to it because the camera only had like 5 minutes of space left on the memory card. But what was funny was that right across the room, there was an ENOURMOUS painting, but everyone was on the other side of the room, looking at the much smaller Mona Lisa. That was really funny. So we took so pictures, and went back to the hotel. The next day, we had to take another awful bus ride back to Madrid. It was torture. But at least I got to go on one of the best trips of my life!
Really long, huh? well i will post some pics later, but right now I'm going to bed. TTYL!!!
