PARIS,here I come

YAHOO... finally we reached Paris Charles de Gaulle at 1020am. It was an hour later as predicted. Never mind, I am still gonna enjoy this trip cukup-cukup. We met a lady in the plane. She is from Turkey but currently she was studying in UK. Not bad, still get to know a new friend, all thanks to Jo's warmness and friendliness. Jo, you are sociable. Trust me.

Then we took train from airport to Paris city center. When we wanna buy tickets, oh gosh, the line was so long. Then we saw vendor machine that sell tickets, we quickly queue up over there. When our turn, then only we know that it only accepts coins and the coin changer machine has broken down. Too bad, we had to queue up like others. By the time we get our tickets, it was already around 12. We reached city center by 1++ pm. Then we went to metro nearby and trying to catch the line to reach our hostel. We walked here and there with 25 kg luggage bags ( mine 15kg and hers 10kg). We were confusing by the sign board and we went to wrong places. We kept on walking and finding. Finally, we managed to find the ticket counter and we bought day pass. It costs €5.80 each.

By referring to map, we changed here and there and finally we reached our hostel. It is a backpacker hostel, named Cliche. After checked in and dropped off the luggage bag, we quickly grab our time and went for sightseeing.

The first spot we went was Paris Christmas market at Champs Elysees. Wow, the street was so busy and full with people. There were a lot of stalls, selling things that mostly I never heard before. I really sampat. haha... Jo bought me banana-chocolata crepe(her favourite) and glue wine(kind of wine that only can be seen in christmas, lucky me). This was the first time i drank this wine and it was hot. The crepe was yummy and we ate with gelojoh. haha.. We sambil makan sambil enjoyed the street view. Along the street, I can see Fairy Wheel from far and Arch de Triumph at the other end.
We enjoyed our stroll along this street. I can sense the christmas excitements as we can see a lot of christmas decorations along the road. We sambil jalan sambil tangkap gambar, really AIAI gang. haha... We even rushed to middle of road to take the picture of Arch de Triumph (dangerous act, do not copy). It was such a happy moment that I can stroll in Paris street together with my best of best friend.

We walked till the arch and took uncountable photos in front of it. Our style, take nothing but photos. We were not allowed to climb the arch that time as it was closed. Too bad. She said that the view from up there is very nice. So, we walked back to the christmas market just now and we took another round of photos as that time it was already dark and lights were on. The night view of the street was even much more beautiful. Though it was cold, both of us were so enjoying the atmosphere and scenery over there.

Then, we took metro to Eifeel tower. It was such a beautiful creation of human beings, especially when under the shining of light. Once again, photo time. Even though that time the weather was damn cold and it started to raining dizzily, but we were never reluctant to stop taking photo. haha... At first we planned to take the lift up to Eiffel Tower, but after looking at the queue, we gave up. OMG, the line was 1.5km long. I really got no patience to wait for my turn despite such cold weather. We headed off to hostel for rest after such a long day. We were being placed in a 3-bed room with attached bathroom and toilet, but we got no roommates. Lucky us ;p I called it a day for my first day in Paris. GOODNigHt,Paris.
