Europe Day 6 part 2
The sewer tour was next on our list.� I know….it sounds gross but it was very interesting.� Paris had one of the first sewer systems in the world and is one of the most sophisticated.� They had a very good museum with tons of information and it didn’t stink!� After the tour we went to the Arc de Triumph, one of the most well known attractions in Paris.� We decided to walk from the Sewer tour to the Arch and on the way we ate lunch in one of the wealthiest areas of Paris and were given 500 euros or $600 by a Chinese man to buy some little bags at Louis Vitton because he couldn’t by more than two.� We took the money initially but then declined as it seemed a little weird.� The Arch was very cool and large and was built by Napoleon to commemorate his many victories.� It also happens to be the largest triumphal arch in the world.� After this we headed back to the hotel for a quick nap.� While I was in Paris there were a couple of things I wanted to experience, one of them being a true French Dinner.� I made a big deal of this and it came back to bite me.� Miriam and I went to dinner and we had to have the menu interpreted to us.� Well…there was something missing in the translation because when I received my dinner I was served Cow Tongue.� I ate part of it but couldn’t finish it, they hadn’t skinned it and it still had taste buds.� It was gross but I guess I had it coming for creating such a fuss.�
