Did I mention the Water Lillies is HUGGGE! Like never in my dreams would I have imagined how big these were. Two full circle rooms… I was amazed! The museum wasn’t very big so we finished there, walked around, went to some souvenir shops and then went shopping- again! We stopped at a crepe shop at the Montparnasse Bienveniie metro stop. It was different than I thought it would be. We went shopping, they had lots of cute little shops. They had nothing in my size or I would have bought way more! So it might be a good thing? I finally found some cute stuff at H & M. (yes, I know I could shop here in America ) It’s hard checking out and not speaking the language.
We went to some mens store with Heath, finally mens for Heath! He found some pretty sweet things then we headed back to Denfert for you guess it… gelato! The guy working recognizes us now! “see you tomorrow,” he said. We stopped at the monoprix for a bottle of wine…. 1.88! Can’t beat that… even in euros! Then we came back, ate dinner and I worked on school work. Everyone on the trip stopped by to tell us they were going out so we decided for the first time we’d join them. We went to a British pub and hung out for a little while. Therese got her picture with a man that looks like Dr. Phil. He gave me his business card and insisted that I email him the picture once we got back to the states.
Ohhh, funnnny story! You know that cheap wine I just told you about... well Heath had a good bit before we left to go out and it turned his teeth black! Well you know almost black... really dark. Hilarious! He couldn't get it all off and we told him it was fine. Well... he drank more on the way and once we got to the Frog (the pub we went to) Everyone kept telling him his teeth were black or asking us if he knew.... priceless!
Okay, back to our night.... We ended up having to take a taxi back to the FIAP because the metro stops running at 2 am! Our taxi driver, Rodrigo, got lost on the way home.. do you think he stopped the meter? No way! They drive BMWs, etc for taxis over here. Heath and I got in a little trouble on the way back from the driver…. Something about you can't steal the stickers off the windows in a taxi in Paris and stick them to your legs!? Who would have thought... Oops but it was so fun!
We finally got back and I got a phone call from Jay… so I got to talk to him for a little while. It’s so funny to me when I get phone calls over here because here it is like 3 in the morning when it’s like 8:00 pm in the states. So he was just getting ready to go out while we were just getting in. Anyway, after my conversation I tried sleeping with it was a really noisy night at the FIAP after everyone got in. My phone woke me up with the most hilarious facebook message I think I’ve ever gotten. Can’t say I know how to take someone professing their love in a facebook message?! Hahahah, nice.
