Paris, Je t'aime!

While Jenny was visiting last week we took the train over to Paris for a night.  We had to get up at 3:30 in the morning to catch the first train out to Paris.  We tried to hit up everything that we could.  We went to the top of the Arc de Triomphe (300 steps), Champs-Elysees, and the Eiffel Tower.  The Eiffel Tower is like Disneyland.  Lots of hype and really long lines, but the view is unbeatable.  We also made it to Notre Dame where we saw people get attacked by pigeons and harassed by gypsies.  Unfortunately we didn't read the fine print that told us the Louvre was closed on Tuesdays.  Other than that we spent the time eating crepes and walking around Montmartre.

You'd hate to be that guy!  It's good to know the US isn't special and there are meter maids everywhere!
