TRAVELLING X PARIS c'est magnifique

here we waited for my friend Adriana (namesake of mine by the way), who is also Colombian, living in the center of Paris and was our guide in our day stay in a city where all we knew was saying in French: bonjour (yes, all not to continue with my French classes jajajajaja). We arrived at the "Gare du Nord" in the night, had a cold climate but added to that, he came to our mind the movie "Taken" because just at that season, were men of great size, dark-skinned or other light-skinned but their faces and eyes expressing all kinds of bad things! I remember my sister took my arm tightly when one of them approached us to say God knows everything in French but the only thing my sister and I said very clearly in Spanish was a strong NO THANKS! hahaha ... in the distance and an angel from heaven, my friend and saw the pale color of our faces (with shock) left turning pink again .... We asked my friend who were those people and confirmed our suspicions: the vast majority are engaged in illegal work ... On the way home from my friend, we began to see the wonders of Paris as the Eiffel Tower, the Opera, the famous Avenue des Champs-Elysees and Arc de Triomphe ... for us, and ceased to be images of the internet and became real landscapes captured by our eyes and minds. The reception: Colombian comidita jajajajaja again, a few glasses of liquor and to bed because the cold and was very strong!. First day, the essentials: my friend was working that day but her husband does not, therefore, the first day took us to the downtown area by car, first stop: the Monument to the Glory, The Eiffel Tower and the River Seine, a few pictures and zaz! elsewhere ... then we move to the Tunnel "Soul of Paris" famously known for the accident that claimed the life eternal Princess of Wales, Lady Di, are two emblems in this place: all the legends that left fans of the Princess and also at the top of the bridge, is "The Flame of Liberty" famously concida elsewhere: The Statue of Liberty in New York (U.S.), if ladies and gentlemen, that flame is in such famous bridge is an exact replica of the flame erect in his arm has the beautiful gift of the French statue in commemoration of 100 years of the Declaration of Independence of the power in the world (so they say hahahaha). Our journey continued for other beautiful places of the capital: the Arc de Triomphe, the Eiffel Tower lit, the Obelisk de la Concorde, the Palais Garnier famously known as the Paris Opera and the Madeleine Church, then to house to rest for the adventure that was!. Second day, Museum of Louvre: being Sunday, the museum is free, and believe it or not contrary to the parody of the movie Euroviaje censored, the row is not long!, Wait a few minutes and makes the entry, while we wait, take the opportunity to take pictures outside the museum as they are a bit tight inside to stop taking pictures (at least not left that day). After touring the museum, a small part of course, we left for another tour where we find other wonders like the Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel, the golden statue of Joan of Arc and the gold plates that cover the reflection of the sun, do you stay impacted their beauty ... then we come to another place in the city logo light: the Cathedral of Notre-Dame, beautiful on the outside and inside! Being there, at least my sister and me, reminded us the famous legend of the Hunchback of Notre Dame and more importantly how the inner and the feelings of a person whose physical ... later and already getting dark, there was a small tour where my friend stayed in the car with Dad, while my friend, my sister and I ingresábamos red district of Paris, to find another place in history: Moulin Rouge! Hahahaha, being in that street, allowed us to see beyond the city of love! To my Paris, to see that place, is also the place of passion (I leave to your consideration hahahahahaha) ... finalized and a bit tired and return to my friend's house to prepare for something we've never done: a picnic. Third day: the Palace of Versailles of Louis XIV .... but before coming to make the trip we did something unique in the history of our lives: what family film, we took the car a blanket, inputs and in a green meadow we sat down to enjoy the most delicious French picnic ever lived and is that more than a picnic, was the site took place: the road to the castle, therefore, our landscape background was the castle ... When we finished, we lift everything and keep to begin our tour of this immense place! Since gold enlaminada door, sources with inspirations from Greek mythology and Asian (for dragons) and large gardens, make this palace a space to contemplate and enjoy stepping ... I think we were there for almost 3 hours if there were more ... Fourth day: As my friend and her husband returned to work, the sister of my friend was our guide, but first and unusual, we were not any allegorical Parisian site, our first stop was the Embassy of Colombia in Paris! Hahahahaha, she had to manage something, so I accompanied her and as well, you know, the government delayed proceedings enough! so, after leaving there, we went to lunch and see the day and sunny the Eiffel Tower from below as well, because we fail to climb! hahahaha, however, we take a tour of the Seine River that allowed us a closer look at other beautiful places such as Alexander III bridge where they say you make a wish for love while passing underneath that bridge (not to guess what I did!) and we saw another interesting place is the Musee d'Orsay ... return, the sister of my friend could not take us to the house, however, took the subway to a certain place, from then on we played soloists get to the station where we waited for my friend and behold, a fatal error: stop two Colombian in a Paris metro station where they talked or 5 language! hahaha, luckily we got!
