HELLO FROM PARIS!!!

Sitting in a cove in the courtyard of my hostel in Paris as I write this. Have to pay per minute for internet, and the keyboard is difficult to use, so this won't be long.
It's beautiful here. The buildings are more intricate than any I've seen before. And I couldn't ask for better weather - it's actually cool!
My hostel is amazing. I wasn't sure what to expect, but it's some historic landmark and therefore gorgeous. I shared a room with 4 other girls, and the room had two sinks and a shower attached. The restroom was right across the hall. I got free breakfast of orange juice, baguette, chocolate croissant and hot chocolate, all for 30 Euros. For a night in Paris, that's a steal.
I've seen the Louvre, Notre Dame, Arc de Triomphe and went to the top of the Eiffel Tower. I'm hoping to go in the Conciergerie today, as well as walk around Montmartre. Then I'm off to Cannes tonight on a train that leaves at around 10:20 tonight. I have a sleeper couchette in a room I'll be sharing with 5 others. I wonder if there will be a shower anywhere. . .
Bit of bad news - I don't see the cable to hook my camera up to a computer, so I don't think I'll be able to post any pictures before arriving at home. Unless someone along the way has one. This kiosk doesn't have any slots anyway, so I can't do anything at the moment anyway.

Write soon.

  1. I actually found your camera cable on the buffet after you left. It is now in your bedroom. Sorry - Perhaps someone else will have one. Think of it this way - One less thing you have to carry and we will all have something to look forward to when you get home!!!!!! Love you and miss you already. I just pretend you are in DC. I live in a state of denial. HA! Have fun!
