We made it to paris today

I just wanted to let you all know that we made it safely to Paris today. OUr travel plans went surprisingly So smoothly..it was like at the beginning of Meet the Fockers, therefore i couldn't help but laugh. it is cold and snowing here, but it is not heavy MN snow but light France snow hehe..in other words it's beautiful. This internet i'm using we paid for so i don't have a lot of time if it stops or i cut this short that's why..but i am taking all of my emotions, these experiences and senses in. The thing i am most nervous for is the sleeping arrangements we are in a hostel room of 6 beds, and it is me and kristen and 3 other men. but both us girls took the top bunks and i plan on putting my backpack on the top with me to sleep tonight i am going to wear my money and passport around my waste while i sleep. It's odd though,,boy the stories i will hae to tell you when i return. i guess this is character building..man i can't explain to you how much this makes you grow up! I am so proud of us though, we figured out the train, the topo, the train to paris, the metro in the busy hub of the city and found our hostel on a little street in the north part of the city,,all in the dark!
phew...i'm glad we are here. It's so cold that i'm not going to shower b/c my hair will prob freeze! o well know one knows me and i will have hat on so hehe...greasy hair wont occur due to the cold! It's colder here than in Spain..i gues i wouldn't have thought that but i did check the weather b/4. i'll just wear lots of layers..wishing i had my winter coat though.
~Tomorrow at 11am we are taking tour of city bywwalking. 't 3 hours long but will be great. lots of photos i'll take. We are speaking Spanish and are from Canada for safety reasons when we are asked where we are from. however this has been recieved well by the people that have asked us..so we contnue to keep to ourselves and be private haha..oh man!! Well, i just wanted to inform you that we are safe and are going to live up this trip no matter how tired we are, no matter how cold we are, or no matter how nervous we are..b/c we grin and laugh b/c now we truly can say we are world travelers. This is amazing...and listening to all this french is beautiful. it's too soon to tell what i thnk of the culture yet though! hopefully you'll hear from me more tomorrow night, if not,,thanks for thinking of me on my journey and reading and following me. It means so much when ou tell me you read my blog b/c it's wonderful knowing i have the support and love from all of you that i do.
So thank you, and i love you all,
Love lauren
