Then we had our last orientation meeting that was actually the best one, it was about shopping in Paris and the do's and dont's sort of thing. I think I may be catching a cold because I've been sneezing on and off all day. We then went to the Louvre which was amazing. I learned that if you look at each piece for 3 seconds it will take you three months to see every piece. I saw the Mona Lisa which just made me laugh because it is the only painting with a glass box over it and there is a minimum like 10 feet barricade around it so no one can get close. I did get a picture so that was good. They had some beautiful pieces especially from Ancient Greece, but I definitely have to go back there because I would say we saw roughly 2 % of it or less, and we were there for almost 2 hours. By the time that was over I thought my feet were going to fall off because they hurt so much from walking around.
Today I was able to order something from a bakery in French and they didn't ask me to repeat it, that was the first time... so yay me! Tomorrow we are going to the Notre Dame and then I want to go up to the Opera house and go shopping around there, supposedly there are huge dept stores similar to Macys and such!
Miss you!!
Till next time.
