First Day in France (Paris) by Benjamin Adolphe

Today we landed in paris at 5:55. We met someone that took us to our driver. In France the time is 6 hours ahead. So at home it is yesterday for us. 


When we drove to the hotel we noticed a lot of differences. The architecture was very different. Most of the buildings looked old. We saw the Eiffel tower in the distance. When we arrived we all looked around it look very quiet. We got to our room and settled down. 


Then we went down for breakfast. We noticed everybody was quiet and polite. Unfortunately I can't say the same about us. When we finished we went upstairs to take a nap. At home it was still very early in the morning. When we woke up we took a shower and went downstairs to go on our tour.

When we found our tour guide we started toward the Eiffel tower. The tour guide told us about the cities history. When we got there the bottom was a lot bigger than I expected. The line was long to get in. When we got to the elevator we went on the top deck. We took pictures While our tour guide waited in line for the next elevator. We got popsicles and went over to the line to find the tour guide. When we did we went on and got on the elevator. We were on the to p of the Eiffel tower! The very top of the tower was one floor above us. Everybody except for Dad and Quentin went to the top. The guide told us about it then we came back down. Dad and Quentin were waiting in line for the elevator. 

When we got down we went to the gift shop. Then we Drove around town and the guide explained about the entire city. Then we went and got dinner. After that we went to a fair. Dad said we can do something together and something alone. We all did a shooting game. Dad was the best at it because he had training at the F.B.I academy. Then the three boys did this obstacle course that was like wipeout. After we were finished with that we went to our room and slept. But at home it wasn't even dinner time.
