The first day in Paris, fully prepared and full of energy, that's what you'd usually find people saying. Well that morning started like all others, waking up in zombie mode, sluggishly getting to the elevator and eating and drinking hoping to wake up, then to find out your plans has messed up and being the man with a plan awesomely I had a plan B :)
The original plan for the day was travelling with a fellow student go to the main attraction of the Eiffel tower and such but due to her going with others luckily I had other plans in store, so I located to Notre Dame instead, bit of a distance although only a stone’s throw compared to all the rest, but a large attempt for someone with very poor directional sense and being my first trip abroad on my own and in a large city as the first stop.
Oh you may notice a few pictures of rubber duck over the events of this blog as they are a joke from uni i have also made into a little game of the ducks travels throughout my photography :) so with great pleasure i now introduce the duck!
But overcoming all odds I managed not to get lost and even had a good browsing session around all the Anime Stores (awesome!) they had across the bridge from Notre dame (not that the anime shops were my main attraction to see in Paris :P )
Having a great day throughout and spending almost all Euros I had converted, I made it back to the hotel in one piece and happy :D and after a few more local shopping trips I had met up with a few other students from my class and all had a short walk to a French pub where soon after earned the title of our brief stays 'local' where many more of our nights would end in a few bottles of desperado's :)
First full day in Paris complete, but there was more in store for me the next day
