Paris

I don't know what to say. Paris and London. I love them.

In Paris we only had one thing scheduled as a group. So we're free to run around Paris.




Today I went to the Nortre Dame, Sainte Chapelle, Conciergerie, Arc de Triomphe, Eiffel Tower by day, and Musee de L'Armee to see Napoleon's tomb. I bought lunch at a metro station and ate it on a bench near the Arc de Triomphe. It was so peaceful.


At the top of the Arc, the view was amazing. There was mist still covering everything, making everything picture perfect.










The first night in Paris we went to the Eiffel Tower as a group.










On Tuesday free travel begins. That will be interesting.

York

Since I last posted I've been to Dingle, Galway, Sligo, Belfast, London, Stratford, Shropshire, and Caernarfon (Wales!). At the moment I'm in York. Next is London, France, and free travel.

In Belfast we had homestays. I ended up with the pastor of the church we did the homestays through. Fisherwick Church has been hosting Bethel students on England Term for around 30 years. I was one of two students who had their own family, every other family had two students.




In Stratford, we saw Macbeth and A Midsummer Night's Dream preformed by the Royal Shakespeare Company. Just outside the theater was a river that swans like to hang out on.
















For those of you who know me well, I have wanted to go to Wales since middle school, maybe even elementary school. What go me interested in Wales was a book that I read - surprise surprise. We went to the amazing Bodnant Gardens to start off Wales. Unfortunately we only had around two hours in the gardens, so I wasn't able to see everything.



















I abosutely loved Wales and Stratford!
