Day 65 2nd Day in Paris

Today we went to Mt Saint Michael and to Notre Dame. We went in and walked around and it was absolutely beautiful. There were huge columns and the ceiling never ends. There were candles everywhere and the music was so pretty. We sat down and prayed and just took everything in for awhile. It was so gorgeous..I still can't believe I was actually there. After that we got crepes and walked around..looked in shops..then we went to the Eiffel tower as it got dark. I guess it's a different color every month..and tonight it was a really pretty blue and it was sparkling..so pretty. So we took a bunch of pictures..then walked around the Christmas market going on right next to it. After that we were kind of hungry..so we stopped in this really nice little place and got a cheese plate and some wine..which was amazing. It was a really cozy little place:) Then we made our way to the world famous street Champs! We kind of stumbled upon it which was funny..we were like hmm i wonder if theres any good shopping on this street! ummm yaaa there definetely is:) there were soooo many people..and the street is lit up beautifully and the street is so wide and goes on for miles it looks like. So as we were walking down Champs me and Britt were talking about how we wish we could meet someone who could show us around the city..cause we really didnt have any plans that night..So out of nowhere this guy pops up and starts talking to us and asked us if we were American blah blah..and he asked us what we were doing that night and said he could show us around..Britt and I figured it was safe because 1.) He was 5'5 and 2.) We were surrounded by a million people..so he took us to St Michael area and we sat down at a bar for awhile and talked..then we went and walked around outside and sat by the Sienne river:) Then we went and got crepes of course..im totally obsessed with crepes now..theyre so so good..the ones with Nutella in them:) So that was really really fun. So we ended up getting the metro back to our hotel around 6am..got some breakfast at the hotel and some stares from alot of people haha and went to bed!! More Later
