One of the nice things about living in Europe is the relatively short and cheap flights from city to city. Since we had fall break in mid October, I decided to use my long weekend wisely and meet up with a good friend of mine from high school in Paris. She was doing a tour of England, Germany, and France with a couple other girls, so I joined them for the end of their vacation. It took a taxi, a plane, a bus and eight hours for me to go from my apartment to the middle of Paris.
Together again after two years!
The first day was beautiful and we enjoyed getting our first view of the Eiffel Tower, and enjoying crepes.
The next day was rainy, so we spent the morning at the Louvre. My favorite part was being able to see some artifacts from ancient history that I had taught the first and second graders last year.
In the evening we found some good spots to take pictures of the city of lights.
On Sunday my friends had to catch their plane early, so I went to a church where I knew the missionaries. It was fun to surprise them! I also met up with some short-term missionaries that I had trained with two summers ago, before I first came to Romania. It was a surprise to see them as well, and I really enjoyed it! I stayed for lunch after the service, and got to know a few of the girls from the church in English, French, and German. Then it was time for me to leave and go back home. This time it was the metro, a bus, a plane, and a taxi that took me from the church to my apartment just in time for bed!
