Erin à Paris!

This weekend, I have received my first visitor à Paris…Erin!  She’s a friend, former and future roommate from BC who’s currently studying abroad in Madrid.  She got in late Thursday evening, as I was making a lame attempt at recovery.  I feel bad that I haven’t been 100% to be the greatest host, but I’ve been giving her maps and directions to a lot of different things so that she can see some of the stuff without me.

Today, we got up early and actually ended up going to Breakfast In America with Chrissy and Kelsey (note: I feel this is going to become a regular occurrence).  Since my stomach is still on the mend, I decided to order some pancakes with berries, and I had my first official meal in days!  Afterward, Erin and I headed towards Place de la Concorde.  We checked out a Longchamp store, where she bought a lovely bag for herself and one for her mom.  Then I showed her the Champs-Elysées and the Arc de Triomphe, and we eventually made our way over to the Eiffel Tower.

Today was the first day I climbed to the top since my trip in high school.  It was BEAUTIFUL, but a tad chilly (as in, I think I only have 8.75 toes now, courtesy of frostbite).

I’ll fill in some more details tomorrow…just wanted to write a bit to keep track of the day! G’night!
