Day Six in Paris

Day Six
-We woke up at 7 am so that we could be out and ready by 8 so that we could go to the Eiffel Tower and take pictures without a million other tourists
- we checked out of the hotel but kept our bags in a safe room so that we didn't have to carry them throughout the city (of course we held on to our passports and such)
- we went to the Eiffel Tower and took a bunch of pictures until a group of Korean people came up to us and pretty much said " we can all the way from Korea, could you please move so we could take pictures?"

-we got hungry and went to a small bakery on our street
-Alicia accidentally referred to wine country as wine land hahaha
- we got our croissants and ate them while looking at the Eiffel Tower 

- we walked to the metro and took it to Norte Dame where we admired the architectural structures and shopped around on the street. 
- we went to a bridge that has thousands of locks locked to it with the engravings and writings of couples initials all around the world. Maggie told us how the weight of the  lock had begun to weigh the bridge down so they were considering cutting all the locks off, this created an uproar in Paris so instead that build more supports for the legendary bridge.

-we found another bug in Maggie's hair (second in two days!)
- we stopped by a gift shop to get some gifts, and after we all bought sandwiches to eat on the train to eguisheim 
- we walked to a beautiful park in France that Maggie loved to go to when she was there for 5 weeks. It was a very quaint place where people came to relax and enjoy the weather, which is what we did
- we watched little kids play with sail boats in the fountain that sat in front of us

-a nice man took a picture of us in front if the fountain and soon after two very nice elderly women (sisters) came up to us and asked us if we could take the same picture for them because they thought it was so beautiful 
- on out way back to our hotel we were asked by a million people to sign a petition for them, Maggie says it is a scam that they use to distract you so they can pick pocket you many times, so we just walked past them all. 
-We got back to the hotel, picked up our bags, and used the phone to call the hotel in eguisheim and tell them we would most likely be arriving late tonight, just so they didn't lock us out.
- we headed to the metro station one last time where we quickly took the subway to the Paris est. station and and hopped on the first train in our journey to eguisheim
- we ate our sandwiches on the train and Tanya found a tiny spider in hers! Yuuuuuuck! It is possible it was on her tooth first
- stopped at the station and Alicia almost went into the men's bathroom but a nice young man turned her around
-Alicia hugged mag and accidentally called her Al hahah! "I love you Al, I mean mag!"
-we all think our current train conductor is very attractive so we scrambles to take our passes out of our money belts before her got to us so he didn't think we were dorks haha!
-we played cards
-we talked and laughed a lot
-al showed tan a hilarious picture she took of her while she was sleeping

-we tried to get a picture of the conductor

-we had a nice view from the train ;)

- we realized that we had accidentally sat in first class the whole train ride but the conductor didn't say anything because he probably loved us
- we hopped on the train to Strasbourg

-on the train Maggie almost told a random guy what town we were staying in until Alicia kicked her to stop her

- when we got to Strasbourg we accidentally got onto a night train that requires reservations. But since we were only going to Colmar which was just two stops over, the lady conductor was nice enough to let us go

- we took a taxi to eguisheim and checked into our spacious, adorable little hotel room in this lovely historical city.

- we went to a late dinner at a cute restaurant where we got these incredible looking dishes 

-Maggie accidentally got a dish that had bacon all over it so she had to pick through it lol

- we went back to the hotel after walking around so we could relax
