What's the best way to get a crash course in French? Get lost and try to find your way home! Went on a jog this morning to enjoy my first morning in Paris and tried going in a square so I could avoid getting lost. Well I ended up finding the cutest park and it was downhill from there. Since the area we're staying in is not touristy at all.. Most people don't know English. Thankfully everyone is SO nice and tried there hardest to help and I finally made it home. Good news.. I know everything about the area I'm staying in now after going in circles a few times. When I got back Madi was on her way to the hospital. She has a super bad case of strep throat and thankfully the owner who knew English took her to the nearest one and now she can finally get on track to start getting better. Since we already had our Eiffel Tower tickets to go to the top, we had to make the best of it and thankfully Madi is a trooper. OMG! It is wayyyyyy better in person than in any pictures! Seriously gorgeous. Started raining shortly after we got there and was a mini hurricane at the top so it was a quicker visit but nonetheless still amazing!
Called it an early day because we are going to be jam packed with activities the next few days and hopefully the rain holds off!
Side note: our hostel is more of a b&b and serves breakfast and dinner and since we were back in time we thought why not try a free dinner, even though we were a little frightened by the Korean breakfast this morning. The dinner was some sort of salad but soo delicious and super cool to have a home cooked meal! (It's these little things you love when you don't have to spend your money on food and can put it towards something way better!!!)
