France Day 5:

Today was definitely a more leisurely day, which was good considering how beat up our feet are at this point. I'm too tired to write much about today, but I will say we encountered the worst that America and Paris has to offer today. In the way of people I mean...

We had our first TRULY rude waitress at Cafe Jade. Apparently Americans aren't welcome there and don't even bother trying to speak French, because they aren't listening anyway. We also encountered some LOUD obnoxious Americans, one of whom was proclaiming to the 500 people in earshot that she was friends with George Bush's godson. People actually got up and moved to tables farther away from her. It was terrible.

In other news, I got the rest of my gift shopping done, and managed to find lots of nice little trinkets and things to bring home for everyone, as well as a few little things for myself. We wandered into lots of fantastic little shops in St. Germain, which is a nice area, as long as you get a bit further away from the Seine.

We also FINALLY made it to Pont Neuf for our scenic boat trip that we kept postponing. I'm actually glad we went today, as it was much cooler than the last few days. We made kissing wishes under the Le Pont Marie Bridge.(The Pont-Marie is known as the "bridge of lovers" and legend has it that if you kiss under the Pont-Marie and wish for eternal love, your wish will be granted.)

Well, we have to get up HELLA early tomorrow for our trip to Versailles, so I must get some sleep. Abientot!

(Also, I'll upload more photos tomorrow!)
