Valetine's Day Weekend in Paris: Day 3

For my last day in Paris, I went on a three and a half hour walking tour of the city. Since it was Valentine's Day, I definitely did not want to spent it alone so it was nice to be with a group and make some friends! I went with the same tour guide that I had the first night when I went on the tour of Montmartre. Prior to the tour, I went to a French restaurant where I had a croque-monsieur, salad, and a glass of wine (hey, it was cheaper than the water, why not?). The tour itself was a lot of fun and extremely interesting. Here are some highlights from the tour itself, again the rest of the pictures are on Facebook.

The Mona Lisa

The Winged Victory (I think)

The Venus de Milo!

Overall, my trip to Paris was absolutely wonderful. The atmosphere there is definitely completely different than here in London which was something to get used to but I now know for when I go back what the better expect. I met a lot of cool people and will actually be meeting up with a girl I met through this trip while I'm there over Easter break. The journey back to London felt a lot longer than the trip to Paris. I had to take the tube from the station back to my flat and I can honestly say I have never been happier to see my roommates than I was this night. I have become a lot more thankful for the little family we've created here since it's a nice cushion to fall back on. I looove London. : )
