So i have had a couple of weeks to get back in to my american routine. So I figure I might as well write about my lovley trip with out goin into an immense amount of detail.
London-an extreemly beautiful place with so much to do and see. I would never want to live there unless i brought a chosen few people with me, But I would go back and visit for a couple months as long as I had the same tour guide without the same times restraints. It was so clean, that was the biggest thing, now don't get me wrong there were agood deal of bums but the city it-self was incredbly clean. I aslo loved it because of the hotel it was so nice and european, small, but nice. I just had the best expierences in London everyone and everything for the most part flowed nicley.
Paris- On the other hand was a totally different story. Not 15 min.s off the euro star Dawana and I were approached by what they call gypsys which were there middle easter women who came up to you with a postcard and asked you "Do you spean english?" and the had you read this sob story about how there starving and they hav'nt eaten in days, and then they ask you for money and don't give up untill you break down. I didn't but the loveing Dawana gave them here drink and some money. That put a damper on my expierence in Paris. So then i discovered the paris has to be one of the dirtiest, smelliest places I have ever been. The people don't shower as often as they should, the women don't shave, its just gross. What made it even harder was tryin to communicate, I felt so out of place, uncomfortable and vunurable. The best part was seeing the Eiffel Tower and the Mona Lisa, that was all I really wanted to see there so I was very content.
When everything is said and done this was an expierence that I will never forget; I made and strengthened alot of friendships and I broke a few but I guess this was a learning expierence; I don't regret anything I said or did. Everthing happense for a reason with that said i must go but one more this...
Rest In Peace my dog Bailey the most loyal friendly dog and one could have asked for.
