Euro Tour: Day 3


We packed up all our stuff in the morning, loaded into the buses and were off once again. The buses dropped us off in the center of Burges where we had free time to explore until 2:00. It was raining so heavily though it really wasn't fun hanging out in the city so we spent our time at a coffee shop, going into stores, and we found this awesome thrift shop where we had a little fashion show. Even got some of the guys to try on some cool 70’s shirts! I got this really cool knitted vest thing, my souvenir from Belgium.

At 2:00 we met at the buses again and at last we were Paris bound! Euro tour had finally begun as many of the guys said! The drive from Bruges was about four hours long and then when we got near Paris traffic started moving a lot slower. The moment we saw a tiny portion of the Eiffel Tower the entire bus erupted in Cheers! I can’t believe it The Eiffel tower, Paris! Why I’m I so lucky in life?! 

Checking into the hotel took forever, and we have to “absolutely silent,” here.  The French don’t like us making the entire ruckus we normally do.  After our three course dinner we got a little bit of free time to wander around the area were staying in, which is like the slums of Paris, but it was still nice to go out for a walk after a day in the bus. Paris is such a busy city and we’re not even staying in the center of it! I’m so so so excited to get out and see the center of the city of love tomorrow!
