Yesterday about 10 of us went to Chateau Chantilly. I thought it would have been owned by the inventors of whipped cream- which is chantilly in French, but I was wrong...I think. Our tour guide was very difficult to listen to.
Last night was a great time. Walsh, Liz and I went to the 5th to find a cool restaurant and cooler people. We did.
The 5th is made up of the Latin Quarter, so it's a young crowd, mostly students. We got delicious, expensive French food and pricey wine. The night was definitely a splurge but it was worth it.
We met up with the 4 other girls to go to an French/Irish pub down the street called L'Antidote. It was a really awesome crowd, really laid back and fun. We sat with a group of French students our age and told them we wanted to practice our French. Most of us ended up talking with them for the whole night. They really were the nicest and we might see them again. It felt great to hold a bit of a conversation with a real LIVE Frenchie in a bar in Paris. Finally.
We toured the Marais neighborhood today. T'was nice. It's actually the type of neighborhood I've been looking for since it's full of second hand and vintage shops.
Well, Becca, Kate and I just returned from the park across the street to make dinner here- So I'm off!
Bye for now : )
