so today my feet are dead... it is night time and i just got back from an epic day of walking. 7 hours!! crazy right? well i think so. anyways we didn't want to pay for the metro to get to the Eiffel tower, and the arc de triumph or the champs elysses. So is was suppose to be a 1 hour walk but it ended up being a a couple more than i had anticipated.
Chhavi, Yasi and i got separated from the group on the champs elysses because there were so many people. but it ended up being a good thing because if there were more people with us it would have been very hard to keep track of everyone. We saw a lot of expensive and nice stores but when we saw the Louis Vuitton store it took it to a whole new level. The store was lined with the vintage collections from he passed years and there was security like no other. So many pieces that i haven't seen before made me want to buy something. However, it would have been a hard thing to do!
We went to the end of the street where the ARC stands on its own in the middle of one of the biggest intersections that i have ever seen! It was so big, with so many cars driving around it. You have to go underground to reach it because it is so far from the sidewalk.
After taking pictures we made our way over to the Eiffel tower, where we did not end up climbing up because the lines were outrageous and it is about 38 flights of stars, 38 stories. And after all that walking we didn't have the energy. it was fun though, and i got to see a lot of paris today walking for so long and finding our way out of the crowds and on the back streets. As for now. i am going to sleep, and not going to run. my feet and legs will fall off.
