Hello all, this is mackenzie santamour, due to technical difficulties i am using the other kenzie's profile to post.
Yesterday
was our last day in London and today we took a train to Paris! The train was
called Eurostar, which is a high-speed railing service; we were traveling
around 186 mph! The train was pretty empty so we had plenty of room to stretch
out and relax. There was a selection of great fashion magazines to read
including Glamour and Vogue. We were served a lunch and had two options to
pick from. I chose a vegetarian quiche and some kind of salad; it was definitely
different than what I usually eat, but not bad. There was a dessert that I
enjoyed and it looked like a cannoli and tasted like a Ferrero Rocher. very
delicious!
Boarding the Eurostar
The
train ride was around two hours long. it was about two o’ clock Paris time when we arrived.
We found our way to the Metro we needed. We took two
different metros to get to our hotel, which wasn't easy but we made it!
We
didn’t have anything set on our itinerary yet so we decided to just walk and
explore a bit. As we passed the Grand Palais and the petit Palais, we found our way to the water, which I believe is called the
Seine River and saw the Eiffel Tower in the distance. We saw whom we believed
to be a K-pop star shooting a music video on the bridge. there was a whole camera crew on site and
sweet sport cars. We also saw a couple getting wedding photos. the bride had a very
long train and a beautiful long veil. we were along the river just in time to see the sun setting. so gorgeous!

We
explored a few more streets and did some window-shopping, but most everything was closed for the day. We passed Miu-Miu, Pierre Cardin, and
Mugler. We all seemed to enjoy the clothing and colorful berets in the window
of Pierre Cardin.

We
enjoyed dinner at a restaurant called El President and headed back to the hotel
for the night. We have some pretty great things planned for tomorrow so time to
get some rest! Check back in to hear from my co-students for the next few days!
Thanks,
Mackenzie
