Anyways, back to the post at hand! This is what I was up to today!!
One of the first 'landmarks' I spotted, besides the Notre Dam was this famous book store! I wanted to get some fresh air today so didn't pop in but I intend to before my trip is over!
I spent a lot of time today just wandering the streets of my neighborhood. Even the most 'ordinary' streets are beautiful, in my opinion. I just love the narrow, winding streets of Paris. They are so charming!
I mean, even their metro signs are charming!!
After I was properly fueled with caffeine, I went for a long walk along the Seine. I will never tire of these views!!
That mostly sums up how I spent day one. I am eating in tonight as I am pretty worn out since I got less than 2 hours of sleep on the flight so will call it an early night. Tomorrow I plan to do a walking tour of the St. Germaine and then I have Thanksgiving dinner plans in the evening. And I am going to hopefully find an Internet cafe as posting on my phone is definitely not something I want to do again. So if you don't see another post from me, that is the reason. If the recaps have to wait until after the trip then so be it!
Au revoir for now!!

Wow you posted all this from your phone? Well done!!
Can't wait to hear how your Thanksgiving dinner was! So glad you met some people to spend it with!
So happy you made it safely to Paris and are having a great time! So awesome you have people to spend Thanksgiving with! Yay!
Ug. I hate posting from my phone! I am glad you are having a good time! I love the view from along the Seine and it looks like the weather there is beautiful!
So I was totally aware you were going to post from your France blog but I don't have it in my reader so I forgot until this morning and then I was like YIKES I have to catch up, so here I am.
Your first day looks amazing and the perfect way to beat jet lag :)
Wow. I'm in heaven just reading this! Do you have Trader Joe in Charlotte? They have pretty respectable French macarons. Not the real deal, but they'll do!
Shakespeare's!!! Loved that place, I hope you went back. (Just now reading your recaps as I don't have this blog in my reader. I was all "where are her Paris recaps!?!?!")
I think having a macaron a day is required when there.
I am so unbelievably excited to read the rest of your trip recaps now!
I'm finally catching up on your Paris posts. I think that's one of the things I love about exploring new cities (in general, but definitely abroad): their everyday streets are often the most interesting places to visit, more so than the big famous strips!
