Foiled by French Key Boards! Seriously, who rearranges the keys on the key board?!

Our taste of France was brief but flavorful none the least. We were going to spend time in both Lyon and Paris but we decided spend all of our time just in Paris. We LOVED Paris (probably because it was like 20 degrees cooler than Spain) but let me tell you... Paris is not cheap. The poor traveling students like oursevles had to be careful in ol' Paris as we spent two days budget on just a train ticket (oww).

We did not skimp too bad though. Paris has a supreme lack of hostels so we were forced to stay at a cheap hotel (oh darn, we have to have our own bathroom). Bryan is like Christmas because everytime he moves it snows dead skin (ugh). Those Valencia sunburns are starting to peel.

While in France we saw the Louvre (we recommend the audio guides BIG TIME), Napoleon's final resting place (they dug him up after he had been dead for awhile and then placed him in six coffins in the middle of a huge room), the most high tech museum I have ever been too for the French leader during WWII, a giant arch whose name I cannot recall, Norte Dame, several other famous cathedrals, and of course Versailles (we were actually there during the French 4th of Julyish celebration which had to do with their revelution).

We had many great battles though too. The metro gates were fickle and brutle. We had to hop a couple because they would not take our tickets. Transportation is expensive so we took a nice little hour hike one day through the city. The weather was crazy (more on that later though). We climed SO MANY stairs. We had to use sketchy bathrooms in moments of extreme need (carry hand sanitizer everywhere and don't touch anything!). And of course we had to avoid the hoards of people selling illegal goods (and they were everywhere and very pushy).

All and all though, not too bad I would saw. It was a great city.
