The Eiffel tower

I suppose I should give an update. I apologize because I am not good at blogging. Honestly, I forget I have a blog and then someone mentions it.

Anyway update.

Well in the last three weeks I have done some pretty amazing things.

During the week of vacation I hiked a mountain. It is 1465 meters above sea level and me and some friends did the whole trip in one day. Below is a picture of what I climbed. The weather was nice for the way up but on the way down…it rained so by the time we got back we were really wet. It was well worth it though. I was very proud of myself when I made it to the top!

I also went to Paris. So yes I have pictures of the Eiffel tower! I also ate escargot in Paris, walked along the Seine River with a dear friend of mine and fell in love with the Eiffel tower. Paris is beautiful and amazing and wow but I prefer living in Clermont-Ferrand. I guess I should add that I did other stuff in Paris besides see the Eiffel tower. I saw the Mona Lisa and still I do not understand why she is such a popular painting. And I walked through two churches in Paris that are older than the United States. That is a little weird to walk through the Notre Dame and think wow this building was here before The U.S was founded. But the churches took your breath away with the splendor and beauty. 

In the near future these things are coming up…Next weekend I am going to a mountain outside of Clermont with a group of friends. Then I have finals then I leave to Berlin.

Yes I hiked this!

Me holding the Louvre: it is really small

Me and Molly at a French restaurant called 1513 because that is the year the building was constructed...so it was a really old building. Also I ate a crepe there. How French!
