le week-end

My first official weekend here was a great start to my semester! On Friday, AUP's SGA organized a pub crawl of some of the bars in the 5th arrondissement, it was a great time exploring a new neighborhood, although I will admit the highlight may have been the roadside stands with super cheap crepes and more hot dog baguettes.

Saturday I explored the 6th a little more before going to a walking tour of Montmarte organized by AUP. It was a great opportunity to see a lot of sights I hadn't gotten to see (the cafe Amelie worked at, the Moulin Rouge and Sacre Cour). Afterwards, we tried a real French fondue place which was so delicious.

On Sunday I went exploring around Notre Dame and then around the Louvre. It was such a beautiful day and I may or may not have almost been pick-pocketed by Quasimodo. Afterwards, we took a Bateaux Mouche, which is a boat that rides up and down the Seine. It was beautiful, but hard to take pictures because it was so dark.
