Day 33... Day 3 Paris, (it rhymes if you say it in a french accent.)

We woke up and our Hostel had baguettes for us in the morning. Not just for us but the whole Hostel. We took the bread and headed out for the Louver. We wanted to get there early so we could spend lots of time there. I think we spend a good 6 or 7 hours in there. I saw Mona Lisa and Venus de Milo. I had to kinda run through the museum to try and see everything. It was CRAZY. Plus I was sore from all the walking we did yesterday. And to add on to that, Nicole and I had to carry our laptops everywhere because the luggage room was open to everyone. So I had on the added weight. This hurt my back, but no more complaining! I was in Paris.

Towards the end of our time in the museum I was getting really hungry, all I had was bread. We told each other that we would meet at the spiral staircase. Well Nicole found me and said it was almost 5 and that's when we were going to meet. So we head down to the staircase. We wait for 10 minutes and it was 5. It's fine Andrew is probably just finishing up.

5:05. Growling come from my stomach... so hungry.

5:10, ANDREW hurry up.

5:15, these guys come up to us and ask if we speak English, we say yes and they start hinting on us. This really angers us because Andrew should be protecting us. ANDREW!

5:25 the guys are gone and we are angry, thus begins making angry videos.

5:30! people are walking around with Starbucks, WHERE IS THIS COMING FROM.

5:35, Nicole and I leave the stair case to get Starbucks

5:37, We find the Starbucks! YAY! Coffee and Food

5:38 stand behind these girls who and moving as slow as dirt and only care about which man is dating who in their group. OMG, no he didn't. Yes he did. OMG! Let's get coffee and make everyone around us annoyed! God was really testing my patience with these girls.

5:40 we get coffee walk back to the stair case, ANDREW is still not here.

5:45, think "Did Andrew change his clock to Paris time? Oh no he is an hour late." Still angry but better because we have food.

5:46 "Courtney, look at your receipt it will have the time on there." Pull out the paper. OH MY GOSH. Real Time: 4:46. Dang it.

4:48 back at Starbucks so we can sit. No longer angry with Andrew but ourselves.

4:52 the complaining starts about how we could have spent a whole hour in the museum .

5:03 make Andrew wait for us since we waited for him for an hour

5:05 "Where were You Guys? Where's Starbucks? I've been waiting here for 5 minutes."

"Andrew, SHUT UP! We have been waiting here for an Hour."

"What? no you haven't I was here 10 minutes ago."
"Yeah well, your watch was set to the right time."

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! OH Man"

We leave Andrew because he thinks he is funny and we aren't laughing.

After that whole thing, because we were still hungry we set out for dinner. This time we were going to have a real french dinner. That really didn't work out. Since we could find anywhere to eat we had french sandwiches. They were more expensive and smaller than Subway, and we didn't know what was in them.

After dinner Nicole needed to try and find her train station so she could find it easily. I REALLY wanted to see the Paris Opera House. PHANTOM OF THE OPERA! So Andrew followed me, I was so glad about it too! I didn't want to walk around Paris by myself, he is an awesome body guard. The Opera House was close to the Louver which is great because our legs are killing us. I finally get there. I will admit I got a little choked up because I made it. I got to see the Paris Opera House! I know, I know I'm stupidly emotional when it comes to The Phantom of the Opera. We took pictures, Andrew was a good sport. I sang Phantom songs on the stairs. I made a video of that but only few will get to see it. It was semi embarrassing because people started looking. It was worth it though. The Opera house was closed so we didn't get to go in. I really wish we could have. Sad.

On our way back from the Opera House back to the Hostel we saw this candy shop. Andrew and I walked in a looked around. It all looked so good and wonderful. There was an odd candy. It was Chocolate covered olives... weird. Now, I'm not saying this is right but I will say this needed to be done. We pulled a Breakfast at Tiffany's. You know the part where they do things they have never done before, they go to the Dime store and steal the masks. Well, there was a bin of them and the store isn't going to miss just one olive. So I blocked while Andrew sneaky snaked an olive. IT WAS ONLY ONE... I know, I know it's still wrong. But still needed to be done. We left the store and broke out our ONE olive. He bit it in half and I took the other half. IT TASTED SO WEIRD. Andrew claims it can't be made out of olives because he can't taste it. I could taste it. It was interesting. I might make them when I get back home so you can get an idea. That was a little adventure Andrew and I had in the Candy store. Back to the Hostel we went.

Nicole got back to the Hostel, only got lost once for 20 minutes, we are so proud. She found it and another hostel close by. She got her mom to pay half for her stay. We crashed on our beds. Tomorrow was our last day in Paris :(
