So, I’m on a train headed back to Dusseldorf at the moment after a weekend in Paris. Coming to Paris I really didn’t have any ideas on what the city would look like nor did I realize all the historic areas that are in the city. We arrived late Friday night and headed to the hotel to prepare for the next day. Saturday we started with a free tour of Paris and was probably the best thing we could have done. The tour guide was a college student from Oregon who lived in Paris for the summer and worked as a tour guide only paid by tips. She was hilarious and knew the city well. After the tour was over we decided to walk around a bit more and see more of the city. After some time we went back to the hotel to get ready for dinner. We slapped on our nice clothes and went out to the top of the hill where a big white church was on the top and Moulin Rouge was at the bottom. After we hiked to the top we found a very nice outdoor restaurant and celebrated life. We left the restaurant, walked around the top of the hill and headed back to the hotel. Today we went back to the Eiffel Tower and climbed the stairs to the second platform which was 670 steps high. After which it was time to head back to the train station to head to Dusseldorf.
Our time in Paris was not nearly long enough. After the free tour we realized just how much there was to do and knew immediately that we could never see what we wanted to see in just one weekend. However just being in Paris and seeing the city made me want to come back as soon as I can to see more of this amazing city.
