This morning Ashley and I woke up and had a buffet breakfast at our hostel (baguettes, cereal, tea, coffee, juice). We got ready and headed out to meet up with our Free Sandeman's Tour group in Saint Michel (best tour to check out when you travel). We walked for ages, saw tons of sights (forgot half the information) met some Canadians and had some McDonald's.
After the tour we went on a trek to see the Eiffel Tower. Just before the Eiffel Tower we had some crepes at a small place called Crepe's King (the guy knew perfect English) so it must have been a touristy place. We took pictures of ourselves and the tower and got bombarded by guys selling hundreds of Eiffel Tower key chains. We checked out some tourist shops and ended our night getting into The Louvre (for free!) to see Ms. Mona Lisa. I was very impressed with the interior of the building.
Tomorrow will be an even busier day: Saint Michel shopping, Catacombs, picnic under the Eiffel Tower and some other sights. I am coming around to liking Paris. The city centre is nice but I can't say the same about the locals.
