Well.. the eurotrip has officially begun. we all met in amsterdam which was definitely a good start to our trip. We mostly just walked around, enjoying the beautiful city and had a really good time. We had an interesting encounter at the Pink Elephant, which hosts a live sex show. It was certainly a once in a lifetime experience, one that I never need to repeat. But anyways, we are now in Paris, and it is FREEZING! We missed our train here, we literally watched it pull away from the platform.. so we got to spend a few hours in Brussels and eventually made our way to our destination. Our first night we decided to go to the Eiffel Tower, because it wasnt very nice out and we figured there wouldnt be very many people there. Boy were we wrong. 2 hours later we were at the very top and overlooking the city at night. It was beautiful. Today, Me Alison and Dianna went to a cemetary which holds Jim Morrisons grave (which wasnt very impressive, but still interesting to see). The cemetary itself was very breathtaking, and there was a great holocaust memorial there as well. Then we went to the train station to book our beds for the overnight train to Barcelona. However, we found out there was no more beds. And no more seats. So instead we leave paris at 6am and go to Montpellier (which is in the south of france) and then spend 5 hours in Montpellier before heading to Barcelona. Should be interesting....
Tomorrow all the girls are going to Versailles, and since Ive already been Im going to just hang out since I feel a bit of a cold coming on. Im going to try and sleep it off, then spend all day writing and sending postcards. If you want one, send me your address.
We are all alive and well and healthy and having an awesome time so far- We can't wait for the sunny beaches of Barcelona though! The weather in Paris has been a bit offputting, but oh well. Miss you all.
