Bonjour!

So basically, i've been off for a few days (if anyone had noticed... :suspect:) because i've been to Paris. I just wanted to share a few pictures with you and stuff..

So Day 1 of the trip was 10 hours on a Coach with a 4am start. We drove to Folkstone and got the eurostar to Calais followed by more driving to Paris.

We got to Paris and we were staying in a extremely posh hotel. We then moved on to our dinner. Where i was extremely amused by the name of the restaurant. Flunch.

We then went to the highest building in Paris and we overlooked the entire of Paris.

On Day 2 however i was ill from the food at Flunch.. But that didn't ruin things as we headed off to the Eiffel Tower! We didn't go up it as it was too busy however we stood right underneath it. We moved on to a local market where i actually spoke French. Impressed. We then went to Parc Asterix which is really amazing! But that was followed by more Flunch food and then a boat ride on the Seine.

Day 3 brought the coach trip back to Wales but a visit to the Stade France where Madonna is playing on Saturday and they were busy constructing the set for the show! We had a good look around the place, including the dressing rooms and we even had a fake Press Conference.

We ended the trip with a visit to Citie Europe the Shopping Centre and a good old watch of HP7 Part 2.



Just thought i'd share some pictures with you all.

I was inside the coach throughout the Calais visit. And it was good :) Apart from the Flunch illness:(
