France Part 1

   So we made it to Paris and the hostel has free wifi... SWEET!!! Today has been really nice so far. We woke up this morning at 5:15, yuck, and had breakfast at the Clink. Then we shlepped our baggage up to the lobby where we checked in with our group. Our tour director, Victoria, is really nice and she told me to bring my other bag for Marjon with me and just leave it on the bus, so it looks like I have 2 giant bags... I got lots of funny stares and even a few jabs... but all in good fun.  There are 21 people on our trip, which is small and we all have our own seat on the bus.  Catherine and I are the only Americans, there are people from Canada, Singapore, and lots of Australians (and a few cute boys!). 
   We drove for a little bit and then got on the ferry across the English channel, it was pretty rough and really cold on deck. After landing in France we drove through the French countryside to Paris, where we are now. The current time is 5:28. We are staying in a Hostel in a room with me, Catherine, and Jillian... we have our own bathroom, this place is snazzy! We have until 6:20 until we meet for dinner and our city lights tour. Tomorrow we are exploring the Louvre in the morning until 3and then we have our bike tour, a picnic under the Eiffel Tower, and we opted for a Cabaret show because our tour leader said it is a really good experience... we'll see :)
  Tomorrow should be fun and very busy and then it's off to Switzerland!!!
