First dinner in Paris


After we got out of the architecture museum, we were all starving and looked for a place to eat in the area. We assumed that this was a tourist area, seeing as we were right near the Eiffel Tower, but were too hungry to care. We found this nice place on a street corner that had outdoor seating. There were 5 of us: myself and Jessica, and our new friends Kayli and Sarah (who are our upstairs roommates in London - Sarah is the one the picture), and Diane. The food was really good and we had a great time. We would have an even better time later that night at an Irish bar down the street from our hotel!


After dinner we headed for the Metro (the Paris subway) to go back to the hotel. Not too far from the restaurant we came across this mess. Paris is known for the rows of beautiful trees that line both sides of its wide boulevards and avenues. Well, I guess in this case beauty comes at a price! All of the these trees seem to attract lots of birds, and where there are birds and cars together, we all know what happens. Usually this wouldn't phase me, but never in my life have I ever seen a car that has been bombed this badly! I just had to take a picture and share.
