On Wednesday night the Lourve is open till 9:45, so we made are way around the Lourve with hardly any body their, then took some great pictures outside. If you notice the couple I am with out side the Lourve, that is my good Sigma Chi friend and his wife on there honeymoon, small world!

Bonjour, More Paris

The Musee De Orsay museum was full of some of the biggest named artist in one gallery. It was quite the experience to see all these paintings in person and have the time to see them all. We then went to the Arc of Triumph where we were able to go to the top and view just about the whole city of Paris. Later that night we saw the church of the living heart and also the moullon roughe. From the pictures you can see I did a sweet air grab and got a good old fashion piggy back ride from one of the girls.

We were really able to see the city of Paris and also many of the main sites to see in one day, on skates! It ended up being a great time and we reached all are check points, here’s a list of what was seen on skates. (Notre Dame, Sainte Chapelle, Pompidu, The Lourve, Napoleon’s Obelisk, Crystal Palace, Paris Opera House, Arc De Triumphe, The Madeline, Trocadero and the Effel Tower.) Skating is not a crime!

First real day in Paris

Well the day off, was another day of fun. We decided to make our way to church that this Sunday morning, so we hopped on the metro and headed off to the Local meeting house. After that we went through the Catacombes which is a underground place which is full of millions of human bones that were put their to store after a big pledage. Later that night we did the Seine River boat tour which went right along many of Paris biggest known sites. When ended the night viewing the Eiffel tower.

Fontainbleau and Vaux Le Vicomte

Fontainbleau and Vaux le Vicomte were both two amazing palaces, with both amazing gardens. Vaux Le Vicomte was none for light up the whole place with candles at night to give it an even more amazing experience.





London Skate

This was the first offical London Skate a thone. We road the tube, we road the buses and we road the streets. It was a fun time and we saw all over London. It turns out that skaters aren't always welcome in London, but we skated as much as we could and where we could.





Wicked and the Syon house

We had a awesome time seeing the Syon house and we had the great oppurtunity of going to the play, Wicked! We were able to get front row seats together and it really was an amazing play.



Chatsworth

Chatsworth Palace was not only amazing on the inside, but even more amazing on the outside. We were able to tour the outside, race up the large water fountain and see it all in a day. Later that night we ended up going to a local game spot in London for some late night fun. Another amazing night and time in London!

Front and center at the Blenheim Palace.

We got up early and took the train to the Blenheim Palace. The walk up to the Palace is amazing and if people did it enough on foot, as we did, you could get an amazing exercise. We had a little rain at the first of the day but, it turned out to be a beautiful afternoon. I wish I could of got photo's of the inside of this place because it's amazing. Photo's are allowed outside, so here's a bunch of the garden and of the outside of the Palace. Enjoy!
