Days in Paris

So I spent April 25 to 28 in Paris. Most of the time I am alone because Rita was too busy with the gazillion things on her agenda. Though I don't mind, because I see myself having no problem going places. I can follow my own agenda, and be selective of where I go.

I hit all the major touristic spots, though I missed out the opportunity of having a nice cup of coffee at a cafe just along the street. Brief highlights:

Day 1:
Arriving at night and my friend picked me up at the metro and she is an absolutely amazing host. Love this girl!


Day 2:
- spending hours inside Louvre Museum and it's such an exhausting trip that I've only covered a good half of the museum collections
- Patheon: crypts of some of the greatest French figures, such as Dumas, Hugo, the Curies
- delicious Japanese dinner with Rita
- catching a glimpse of Notre-Dame at night


Day 3:
- lunch with Adina: so this is how the Alcatel office looks like in Paris =P
- Montmartre area
- dinner and chilling with friends on the rooftop of Rita's place: overlooking the Eiffel tower and Dome Church
- getting pushed into Paris metro, without any effort of lifting my feet, because it is THAT crowded


Day 4:
- strolling along Champs-Elysees and stepped into Louis Vuitton, just to observe the expression of those fanatic ladies (particularly Chinese and Korean) gasping and shrieking over a 1000 Euros wallet while the husband unwillingly pull out his credit card
- Eiffel tower
- cup of Espresso at the Nespresso store, whose spoke person is George Clooney


All in all, I fell in love with the city. Let's see if I can make it once more before I leave Europe....
