Hey there you all! It’s moi here again. Reporting live from paris! Today is the second day of my tour and I think that I’m suffering from serious culture shock! But first, let me tell you about yesterday… Just as I’d said at the airport, I’d waken in the plane to find myself in paris. After we met up with our tour guide, gary, we set off for our first sight-seeing spot: arch de triumphe. Arch de triumphe is a marvolous structure erected by napoleon, a french pope (a.k.a king). Next, we went on to visit the famous eiffel tower! Believe me, whatever you see on postcards cannot be believed. What you’re seeing is a tiny replica of the real one which stands at a monstrous 1000 metres tall! The eiffel tower took its maker gustave eiffel 2 years, 2 months, 2 weeks, 2 days, 2 hours, 2 minutes and 2 seconds to complete construction! No kidding!I thought that i would never get this huge and wonderful struture in one shot. However, I was actually proven wrong! After a sumptuos lunch at a Chinese/Italian restaurant called Fortuane de Jade, we went on a cruise along the sienne river. There, I was able to get awesome shots that I’ll post on facebook soon… Anyway, let’s get on with today’s events: firstly, I felt really ill this morning. I had a terrible cough and a mild fever. But I felt better after a few cups of water and juice and a hearty breakfast. At 9 o’clock, our tour group of 32 people(including us) set off for the Louvre museum;the largest museum in Europe. The rest of the day was spent shopping for souvenirs. I bought a frige magnet with a painting of the Mona Lisa on it for my mother’s sister. Also, I got a stack of postcards to give to my friends back in Singapore when I get backm tomorrow, I’ll say au revoir to paris and boujour to Switzerland! I’ll fill you in tomorrow… Shadevra over n out!
