Ah, Paris!!!

I'll have to upload photos tomorrow, but wanted to let you know that my friends Maggie, Thomas, and Heather got into Paris safe and sound, we found our rental car (a Mercedes with a GPS... Fancy!), we got out of the airport and into Montmartre near our hostel, found parking for overnight, went to the hostel to drop off our bags, had a nice lunch in front of Sacre Coeur, did a nice tour of the big sights (Arc de Triomphe, Champs Elysees, Place de la Concorde, Jardin des Tuileries, Louvre (just the basement, not the whole museum), Notre Dame, St. Michel (for my favorite flower gelato), back to Montmartre for a nap in the hostel, out to dinner at a fabulous fondue restaurant, out to see the city from atop Montmartre... saw the Eiffel Tower all lit up, and back to the hostel to get ready for tomorrow. We'll be having breakfast at our hostel, leaving Paris early and heading to Dijon, which is on the way (and hopefully near more open gas stations). We'll stop there for lunch and be back to Lyon by 5/6pm... which means more pictures soon!!!!

More soon:) Reste cool!
