First full day in Paris

Hiiii! How was Dino Dash? And Gohan Market? Did you guys have fun with Eli and Cece? 

This morning I got up early and did some writing and journaling. This was the view and it was very relaxing. 

I did a little workout and we all got ready for the day. This is our mirror selfie.

We got outside and it was a little drizzly but overall it was a beautiful day!

We decided to get some lunch. We sat outside and had some delicious food and we people watched. There was a lot of smoke though so I got a bit nauseous at the end haha. French culture is so interesting. Food service is so slow, which is the norm here. 

We are at the Seine River, which is a big river in Paris. There are a lot of very old and historic buildings alongside this river. It was beautiful and we spent the whole afternoon walking. 


While walking, I saw this art display with a bunch of wooden chairs attached to the side of a building. It was so cool!!

For dinner we had Vietnamese food. I got soup with shrimp and we ate some other small dishes. The food is so expensive here! But the restaurants are all very beautifully decorated. It’s a very lively place to be. After dinner we got gelato and walked back in the cold to our Airbnb. Now we are hanging out in the living room and trying to plan what to do tomorrow. 

I love you guys!!! Good night!

(Or good morning, if you are reading this in the morning!)

   Hi guys!!! How was your day everyone?? Did you have the day that you hoped to have? Today was our last day in Europe. I’m sad to be leaving because we didn’t get to do all the things we had wanted to do, but I’m also looking forward to being in the comfort of our home and family.  Above is our daily mirror selfie.  Then we went to breakfast at a local restaurant. We had ginger shots because some of the ah-yi’s don’t feel super well. It was very spicy, but I liked it! This was my drink- a golden latte which had tumeric, cardamom, and oat milk. It was surprisingly delicious!  And my avocado toast with cream cheese and two poached eggs. It was pretty good but also super big, so I was too full after I finished. And on the way we go to explore Brussels! We stopped at a chocolate shop. Belgium is known for its chocolate. Or it’s one of the things that it is known for. And there are chocolate stores everywheeeereeee. Rachel and Jen Ah-Yi bought two hot chocolates to drink while we walked.

Hi guys!! I miss you all too!!  I loved your audio message. Leona, what did you and Jacob order from Jason’s Deli? What was your favorite decoration at the Forum? Also, how in the world do you know all that stuff about the Mona Lisa, Jacob?  Above is a picture of Hao Ah-Yi and I at lunch. We stayed around our airbnb and picked up some last minute items. And then we finally made it to this ramen shop. It was always packed with a veeeerry long line whenever we walked by it. It was delicious! They had Japanese street sounds playing over the speakers and the decorations really made it feel like we were in Japan.  This was my soup and noodles, it was a little spicy and very creamy broth.  We walked around the neighborhood and I took this picture to remember how beautiful the city is.  Then we went to visit a library that I had wanted to go to. It’s called the Mazarine Library.  Inside there are some more statues, or really this is called a bust. It looks like a baby’s face. But it made me l
