Paris, France

We made it to Paris on Wednesday and so far have enjoyed walking around the city and finding our way on the metro system. (Train) Language has been somewhat of a barrier to getting around and ordering food/ drinks but overall people here have been friendly and helpful. We did have a an issue of ordering a pizza for 2, they brought out 2 big pizzas. I guess you can just laugh at that and enjoy the leftovers. Yesterday (thursday) we took the metro to the Louve and then walked to the Eiffel Tower. We walked to the second level and took the elevator to the top. Pretty impressive to see the entire city from up there. Today, we're heading to the Notre Dame Cathedral and then going to see the Eiffel Tower at night when they put on a light show on the hour. Tomorrow we're taking a bus up to Amsterdam and plan on spending a few days there.
