eventful weekend!

i have been lacking in the updates...sorry everyone! i will try harder :o)
this past weekend i traveled to PARIS via London for one night...amazing! i went to London with a friend who showed me the city in about 4 hours...we saw Big Ben, Tower Bridge [with a boat going through- SO COOL!], the London Eye, the mayor's sweet office, Picadilly Circus, the National Gallery [free art museum=amazing], Westminster Abbey, some cool memorials, and where the Prime Minister lives.
the next morning i woke up very early to take the Eurostar to Paris. i met Madalyn, one of my good friends from UB, and her friend Allison, who are both studying in Montpellier, France this semester. on saturday, we saw the Arc d'Triomphe, the Effiel Tower [and took a nap in the garden], and did some shopping while walking around the beautiful streets of Paris. then we had dinner and headed back to the hostel to get ready to go back out to a club at St. Michel, close to Notre Dame! needless to say it was quite a fun time...haha :o)
sunday we slept in for a bit and then had lunch, then headed to Saint Chappelle, La Conciegerie, Notre Dame [even stayed for the first part of mass!], walked along the Seine, the Bastille and Paris Opera House, Champs Elysses [to see the Eiffel Tower glitter at night], the Louvre [absolutely stunning at night, could have stayed there for ages!], and finally Sacre-Coure, which was right by our hostel.
monday it was back on the Eurostar to London and then the train back home to Chichester...welcomed home by a package from my sis and an 8 hour day of class ahead of me! but, i made it through, and it was well worth every second of it.
when i sort out my pictures, i PROMISE to post a few. the rest will all be on facebook too if you want to check that out :o)

xoxoxo,
