Paris: Au revoir!
July 4th, 2011
The alarm went off at 5am. By 6:30 we were at Joinville-Le-Pont RER for the last time. We got to Charles De Gaulle in good time, and so we sat for a bit before saying our goodbyes. From Charles De Gaulle, I went to La Défense, to see the Grande Arche and ended up sitting there for a while utilizing a WiFi hotspot I found. The whole défense area is pretty nice, if you can see it...

Paris: Mona Lisa's Smile
July 3rd, 2011
I woke up, happy to see that I wasn’t in a pool of blood, and waited for Emily to finish getting ready before getting ready myself. Once in the bathroom, I looked in the mirror, decided my hair was fine and threw on my clothes.
The plan for today was to go to Notre Dame, the Louvre, get some pictures at the Moulin Rouge and Sacré Coeur, then go to Père Lachaise cemetery...

Paris: The Macbeth of Traveling Companions
July 2nd, 2011
Well, its official, Emily MacAgy takes the longest to get ready of any one I know…
We left the hotel and got out to Disney just after 10. Because I was hungry for the first time since arriving in Paris, we went for some breakfast.
We opted for Annette’s diner, because it appeared to be the only place actually serving breakfast.
After Annette’s we headed into...

Paris: Very Bad Trip 2
July 1st, 2011
Woke up at 9:30am, I’d woken several times before that, but figured that the alarm was due to go off in half an hour, so there was no point in going back to sleep.
I lay in bed for a while before getting my phone, to finish the previous days blog and then publish it.
After that, I tackled the shower. The hotel is nice, nothing fancy, but definitely comfortable. The shower...

Paris: A Car, Two Planes & Some Trains
30th of June, 2011
I some up at around 5:30am, which I wasn’t that happy about, given that it was long before my alarm. I went online for a bit though, and generally woke myself up before getting out of bed. Once up, I showered - new haircut doesn’t do well overnight - and got all my stuff together with the aim to fitting everything I needed for the weekend into an averaged size...
