Just Hanging by the Grassy Knoll & EIFFEL TOWER!

Well on Saturday I had one of the best experiences of my life whilst being in Europe!  It was FAB!  The warm sunny 80 degree day in OCTOBER started with an overnight bus trip from London to Paris on Friday night.  I arrived in Paris nice and early and me and my friends headed to the Palace of Versailles.  After a few train quirks we finally managed to get there to see this LOVELY palace.  The inside was great and I ended up getting in for free since I was a resident of the EU/UK and was under 26.  SCORE.  Once we strolled through the palace, we took some time to enjoy the sunshine and venture through the gorgeous gardens.  There were tons of photo opportunities and this was just an amazing experience.  Then the musical fountains started and it was like living inside of a ferry tail!

After we had enough time at Versailles, we ventured back into Paris straight into the Eiffel Tower.  Once arriving there, we found a corner shop that sold wine - we managed to buy a red bottle and of course they had a few sneaky bottles of white wine chilling in the fridge!  How clever - I learned this trick from my good friend while touring in Nicaragua.

We took those bottles, some cheese cubes, lindt chocolate and more to the grassy knoll where we chilled for about 4 hours.  We saw the tower from day, dusk, and finally by night.  We took plenty of pictures and just plain out enjoyed ourselves.  It was a lovely evening and the grassy knoll was packed.  This is something that I had been wanting to do for so long and I finally got the chance and got to do it with 2 amazing friends!
