Tsana and Dave's Travel Blog Paris and London

Journal

  1. Itinerary
  2. Landing in Paris "There is no one else I'd rather be here with — except John Travolta, but the old one, not the new one." (Dave at his finest today)
  3. Bike tour of Paris "Aqua?" (dumb guy on our bike tour who apparently didn't realize we weren't in Spain)
  4. Market, falafel, and Notre Dame "I'm American. I don't speak French!" (annoying American on the boat tour screaming at the poor staff member)
  5. Bikes to the Arc and the Eiffel Tower "Holy crap, that's a huge rotary…and we just rode through it." (Tsana commenting on the rotary around the Arc de Triumph that we rode our bikes through.)
  6. Orsay, Montmartre, and pastry "Yes, I want to date Blossom." (Dave after I told him that the picture — see Day 4 — was a drawing of someone he secretly wanted to date.)
  7. The top of the Eiffel Tower "Just to clarify, we are not getting married just yet!"
  8. Normandy, then too much duck "Have you ever tried speed dating? I was thinking of trying it next week." "That's messed up." (Dave commenting on how he would like to spend his week when we get back — and my response.)
  9. Shopping and a croque monsieur "Yes, I'm eating Nutella out of the jar…" (as Dave looks at me with disgust and then proceeds to do the same thing.)
  10. The Eurostar to London "I don't understand what you're saying probably because of your stupid British accent." "It's not British." (Said a random American man on the Eurostar to an Australian — and to which the Australian man replied — the audacity of some people!)
  11. Crowds, guards, and the London Eye "Wow, most people don't eat that much." (said the waiter to me as he took my plate.) "I think he just called me fat." (I responded to Dave.)
  12. Windsor, Stonehenge, and Bath "Did you just see that?" (I asked Dave as I saw a guard at Windsor Castle wipe off his shoulder after mistakingly bumping into a person in the crowd.)
