I took a walking tour with a couple guys from the hostel I was staying at.  It lasted for 4 or 5 hours.  I can’t remember what time it started.  We saw a ton of stuff and our guide had a ton of info on just about everything, so it was pretty informative and entertaining.  Notre Dame, Louvre, Jardin Du Tuileries, Obelisque, Eiffel Tower, and Arc de Triomphe.  It was a lot of stuff to take in, but I’m glad I at least got to see these things.  It was really hot and sunny all day so that made the walk seem extra long, but it wasn’t too bad.  I think my favorite part of the day was sunset.  After we got back tour hostel and took a little break we made our way up to the Sacre Coeur.  We just sat on the grass and had our wine, bread and cheese and watched the sun set over our incredible view of Paris.  I’m definitely glad I stayed for one more night instead of taking the night train out.  I think I may be doing that today though.  I’ll think about it while I’m out.  I’m kind of winging it from now on, by the way.  The past few scheduled days would have been a lot better had I not HAD to leave by a certain time.  I’ll make sure I have somewhere to stay at night but only one day at a time, so I’m not stuck with plans that I don’t really want to keep.  I’ll be careful I promise.  I think it will be much easier this way.  I hope so.  I guess we’ll find out.  I’m off to roam around Paris for a little while and think of where I might want to go next.  I’ll try to get some pictures up soon.  Love you all.
