Flight
The airplane food was great, donno y ppl r complaining.
There was no food on the flight to/back Montreal, only on the Paris one that we got lots.
On the flight back from Paris, I had lamb for dinner and then pizza pocket later, and then Japanese rice crackers for snack.
On the flight to Paris, I had beef Lasagna. It was great altho I wouldn't mind a bit more beef.
There were also free wine offered as well. John got the red wine. I had orange juice the whole time.
Movies we saw on the planes: Next, Meet the Robinsons (great animated movie), Incredibles (still good eventho I've already seen it), Spiderman 3 (skipped some of the endings... too sleepy), and Shooter.
Places we visited during our trip
- Eiffel towel, Arc de Triumph, catacombes, Concorde (Egyptian Oblesik)
- Shopping or window shopping @
Champs-Elysees (also breakfast and pastries takeout @ l'aduree),
Germain des Pres,
Lafayette,
Les Halle (we were too early and it's closed and it didn't look that good)
market street: Rue de Claire...?
- Gardens: Bois de Bologne (only near the entrance), Tuileries, Luxembourg, Jardin des Plants, Bomp..., ....
- Churches: Notre Dame, Sacre Couer, St. Eustache
- Museum: Louvre, Rodin, Orsay.
- Modern art: Pompidou Center
- Looked outside and didn't go in: Grand Palais, Petite Palais, the Dome church (where Napolean tomb was in), Pantheon.
- Walked along River Seine
Favorite meal
- meal on last day: Whole avacardo stuffed with crab, steamed fish in a chinese steaming bamboo box, Escargoes (stuffed with green garlic sauce), lait chaud.
My favorite drink is now steamed milk with sugar. They always give u sugar to put in when you order hot milk there (they usually don't understand you if u said "steamed milk" instead of "hot milk").
Their espresso is very strong (according to John), and they always give u a piece of chocolate or a small biscuit on the side.
Most regret
- Stinky metro, stinky passenger tunnel along the river, lost my red cap.
- didn't wait long enuf for the USB to unplug and lost some of the pics on the last day, including my favorite meal... :'(!!!!
