First Detailed Blog :)

Day 1 (Wednesday): Visited Eiffel Tower during the day, went to our first French cafe, napped for a solid 3 hours and stayed at the L'Hotel Mayet 

Day 2 (Thursday): The rest of the group came in, we walked around the city, ate at a quaint little cafe with all 8 Phi Mu girls, and then went to bed very early.

Day 3 (Friday): Breakfast then Orientation with the entire "UGA a Paris" group. Then we toured the city on a bus and saw Le Tour Eiffel, Le Musee d'Orsay, Le Louvre, L'Arc de Triomphe, The Ritz where Princess Diana was right before she died in the car accident, The Pantheon, L'Hotel des Invalides, The Seine River, and every museum/monument that means anything in Paris. We had dinner and then called it a night because of our early adventure in the morning.

Day 4 (Saturday): We woke up at 7 a.m. and hopped the metro and the r.e.r. to get to Versailles. We spent the day looking at the entire city including Marie Antoinette's humble abode. It was awesome. Then we ate lunch in the gardens at Versailles and left around 2 p.m. We napped then got up and went to dinner at a really great cafe, came back, got dressed, bought some wine on the way to the Eiffel Tower and hung out at the Eiffel Tower all night....in the rain. It was great. 

Day 5 (Sunday): Do absolutely nothing besides read, eat baguettes and visit the local grocery store called the "Shopi"....school starts tomorrow...great.
