In the past few days I have been on a bike ride all around Paris, we rode all the way to the Eiffel tower and then back to the Bastille which I have to say is the best way to see Paris there is! I would recommend it to anyone coming here. We got invited and attended a secret dinner that was amazing! Many people that are visiting France come to these, it is a type of meet and greet where there are many english speaker and you just talk about Paris and get to know each other. I met some really interesting people that I really hope to keep in contact with! We found a 50's diner and had dinner there before we went to climbed the Eiffel Tower! It was a lot of stairs and I have had a couple charlie horses since then but it was not nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be! It was such an accomplishment! I loved it!!! For a class outing we went to an exhibit of Madame Gres, which was so inspiring and amazing, I am thinking about using her designs as inspirations for my fashion show line this year :) We had a little treat last night, we went to see "Midnight in Paris" in Paris! At first the movie theater didnt seem to have AC which was going to have to force me to leave since it was over a 100 degrees outside! When we finally got into out theater it was a but cooler than outside which was amazing, it was so nice to just relax and watch a movie all about the wonderful city that I have called home this summer! When I walked out side after the movie I felt like I was still watching it! The streets of Paris will always have the same feel and charm! These last few days have been the best of my life so far!

This is how far away the Eiffel is from home :)
We were on our way down when it was twinkling!!!
I treated myself to a little sorbet after that hike!

She was so amazing and had so much patience for detail
