MY BIG TOPDECK WINTER EUROPE TOUR!!!
DAY 1 LONDON TO PARIS
it all started when i had to get up at 4am.. and peggy had to drive me to epping station so that i could catch te underground to stamford brook and carry my luggage to the globetrotter inn .. meet up wit our tour guide and half the group.. we then had to walk back to the station where the bus was waitin... it is still dark at this point.. so our group.. we had the tour leader tori and the driver pj... there was about 40 ppl... which included sumthin like 7 couples... 3 were canadians, 2 were "kiwis" and one koren who barely spoke english.. and the rest were aussies.. u just cant escape them.. i was hopin for a nice englishboy but hey what can u do... so we got on the bus for a 2 n a half hour drive 2 dover then a 90 min ferry ride to calis.. and a 6 hr journey to paris ohh the joy of a bus... we later learnt to adapt to bus days.. buy playin stupid games and sleepin off a hang over.. i think i did alot more of the later... umm so when we got to paris we were allowed to get into our rooms and then get back on the bus to do a night tour of paris... it was pretty annoyin getin back onthe bus.. and we drove round the arc de triomphe several times to the mission immpossible theme.. and we heard the cancan music as we went past the moulin rougue... but all in all i think we were all tired so we were fallin asleepo as tori talked and when we got back to the hotel we all just went to bed.
#day 2 paris
ok so next day.. as i had only just been to paris and seen all te important sites i was wonderin what the hell do i do.. lucky enough shan(canadian) had also just been.. so we ended up goin to the catacombes where neither of us had been before.. it was ok.. pretty repetative though.. bones bones and more bones... but after that we just wandered tround paris not really doin anything... we all met up at 6pm and had champagne(real champagne) under the eiffel tower.. and some ppl from sta travel were doin us for that dinnewr and our boat cruise... dinner was very intrestin... i tried snails n frog legs.. the legs were a bit watery but the snails were nice.. till u remember ur eatin snails... hahah but i couldnt get it out of the shell so i got kel (from perth) to get mine out and umm ryan who was sittin next to her ended up wearin snail goo.. from then on she was named snail... after that i drank a bottle of wine between dinner and gettin on the river cruise.. cantsay we saw many sites.. too much alchol and umm socialisin... pj told us to scream everytime we went under a bridge.. but there were lots of bridges n i scream loud.. i think he regretted sayin that... as the boat was dockin i decided to go to the toilet.. and wen i came out every one was gone... i tried to explain my situation to sum one but he only spoke french.. all good though coz sum how i got back on the bus.. an d back at the hotel there was a bit more drinkn... and about 4am i stole a hat off someone and that resulted in a couple of kisses... ohh in paris hahaah...
