la fin de la semaine

Gran Tarino was one of the best films i have seen in a while. i definitely recommend it! wow. bang, and it wasn't dubbed in French! yay. It had French subtitles. The lady's apartment we ate at was atop a hill in Paris and had a great view of the eiffel tower, and i guess on the hour every hour of night it had these crazy blinking lights that look like diamonds! (normally at night it's just lit).

I went to the Champs-Elysees and the arc du triomphe, which is where all of the haute couture stores are. And I went to some high end department stores, le printemps and la gallerie de lafayette. WOW i am floored by all of the haute couture fashion i saw today. but truly, it makes me want to return to fox valley thrift and go thrifting. haha. tried and true.

Today is my last day in Paris, the family we are staying with is bringing us on the bateau mouche- a boat tour on the Seine!!! Then they are bringing us out for supper at a restaurant. They are very generous people and very warm. I will miss them.
