♥ Paris Day 2 ♥

Had an early start to the day as we had lots to see... First stop had to be the Eiffel Tower. We were there as soon as the gates were opened. Being lazy buggers, we took the lift all the way up to the top floor haha.. didn bother with the stairs.. (:

Had a great view of Paris... Beautiful day... Breathtaking views...

Specially made our way to this bakery that was famous for its fougasse (special kind of french bread) had our lunch on a bench right beside the road.. wasnt the best place for a lunch picnic haha but it was the only place we could find...

Next stop - Arc de Triomphe another iconic landmark which stands proudly at the top of the Champs Elysees





Boulevard Champs Elysees - lined with shops like LV, Gucci and what have you.. haha awefully posh street (:



Walked past Angelina's along Place de la Concorde which was famous for its Hot Chocolate... really really rich hot chocolate..

On our way to The Louvre... some arch facing The LOUVRE hee..

Third stop of the day - The Louvre, the world’s most famous art gallery, home to Mona Lisa



Had to get a picture with Mona (:

Any idea who this is?

Aphrodite - The Goddess of Love ♥

The museum was holding an exhibition on Babylone as well so we went to have a quicky look...

Next and final stop - The Pompidou Centre, home to Paris’ modern art museum. The museum s famous for its unique architecture...

We had a hard time looking for a place to eat that night... finally came across this place selling mussels... so that's what we had haha.. mussels, mussels and more mussels.. Its amazing how a bucket of mussels can fill one's tummy but boy was it yummy (:

Angel's shoes were giving her a hard time, and with all the walking we were doing and were going to do, she decided to get a pair of flip flops. Her feet were really painful by the end of that day.. (: the amount of stares she got from the french haha...

♥ Paris Day 1 - Disneyland ♥

Grew up watching all sorts of Disney films... and I must say Ive watched almost all if not all of Disney's shows... so we had to make a day for Disneyland. Even though its not the best or the biggest one, its still Disneyland~!! (: ahaha

Eveything looked like it came straight out of a Disney film.. colourful and magical.. The weather was gorgeous as well (: Apart from the screaming, tantrum throwing children that we saw by the hundreds (am not exaggerating mind you), there was so much to do and see, rides to take...

Oh... I forgot to mention that we happened to be on the same flight as the Bruneians so we met in the morning and spent the day at Disneyland together (:

25% student discount - what more could I have asked for haha...

*First stop - Adventure Land






Everything was so expensive... the only thing which we could afford were waffles... so waffles it was for lunch (: god knows what they were up to while I was ordering waffles for everyone

Best Ride of my life~!!! Space Mountain

just to make things clear, only Angel, Chee Hao and I would go for the rides. Mahadir and Damus would gladly wait for us outside haha

This was interesting... I watched "Singing in the Rain" at the Esplanade in Singapore a couple of years ago so I had to get a picture with the umbrella and water sprinklers that came on at random times....
..... and I got stuck for a while under the umbrella... just didn fancy getting wet.. haha

Pink convertible cadillac* wouldn mind having one for myself (:

Arrived at the entrance at 10am (which was when the park opened) and left Disneyland at the bck of 7pm... our feet were aching, we were exhausted, our tummies growling, but all in all, Disneyland was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G ~!


We took the metro back to the station near out hotel, went into this delightful bakery to buy a few cakes and buns. The lady at the shop recommended us this family restaurant just a few minutes walk from where we were... and thats where we had dinner that night.. Bouchon I think the place was called. Tiny place with a very eccentric waiter, but it served the best tasting foie gras I've ever tasted... I had the veal with foie gras sauce which was immense~!!


Clockwish - Roast Duck, Fish with cream sauce, Veal with foie gras sauce, Foie gras, Apple tart with some alcoholic sauce and strawberry sponge cake..

We basically crashed as soon as our heads hit the pillow.. well for me at least haha...had to get all rested as Day 2 in Paris was gonna be a really packed day... (:
