Day 24- Paris

Sunday, May 16 (Day 24)

Today was our LONG drive! We went from Switzerland to Paris, left around 7am and got to Paris around 5pm. On the bus, Carli and I played card games with Bob and Dick. That helped. But once again, I couldn’t sleep one bit on that stupid bus!

When we got to Paris, we had a welcome at a café there. We all sat down at the café and had a single snail (escargot) and a glass of champagne. I really enjoyed both!

Once done with that, Russell took us around the city to show us around so we could figure out what we wanted to do the next day.

After all of that, we got to our camp sight and brought our bags in and had dinner. Carli and I were at the camp store trying to buy drinks for the night and it was then that I realized that I was supposed to be in the kitchen on dinner duty! Oops! I ran to the kitchen and finished up cutting the dessert and platting it. Then we ate dinner. It was good! It was pasta with feta cheese, sun dried tomatoes, and olives, salad, and rice with stuff in it.

After dinner, I took a shower and then met up with the girls to go to the bar at the camp. I really wasn’t feeling well that night and even gave my cider away. I hung around for an hour and nothing was going on. We were all supposed to play a card game but nothing was starting! I was feeling worse and worse and I decided to call it quits and go to bed. Wouldn’t you know that as I am leaving, the rest of the crew shows up to play the card game? I missed out again. Oh well, sleep was more important and I definitely knew that the next morning!
