May 10, 2009 Last day in Paris

Today was our last day in Paris we tried to get up at 8 but we were so tired we slept till 9 when we finally got up we packed and got ready for our last adventure. We checked out of our hotel and made our way to the subway to go to Notre Dame. The church is absolutely beautiful when we got their Danni and Courtney went to the bathroom Meg and I watched the bags. While they were gone a Gypsy came up to us with their same little sign asking for money but we don’t talk to strangers so we didn’t answer and she walked away. When the girls got back we made our way to the line to get into the church when we got to the front their was a sign that said no luggage and we all had our bags so we did two people at a time. Meg and I went in first and Danni and Courtney watched the bags. The church was gorgeous. They had a ton of statues depicting different scriptures form the bible. There was even mass going on at the time. When mass was finished they allowed us to go to the front of the alter and take pictures. When we finished our tour. Meg and I went to the gift shop and bought an angle pin blessed by the priest for our grandma’s. After our gift shopping we met back up with the girls and then it was their turn. When they came back we went on our search for our subway we got a little lost but when we found it we found a cute little Café. Where Meg and Danni had chocolate crapes and court had chocolate croissant. I was not hungry so I passed but it was fun to eat outside regardless. After we finished we took the subway to the airport and the tram to the terminal. We were here really early since we had such a fiasco getting here so we waited downstairs in the lounges until we could check in. When the time came we checked in and made our way to the gate where we have to wait two hours for our plane. We tried to get on the earlier flight but since our ticket was booked under a package deal we could not move our flights so we just had to wait for our plane.

            Once we got on out plane it was smooth sailing. We got to drink wine on the plane and relax until we landed. Then it was a breeze getting back to the manor for the first time during our tip.
