PARIS!

Like I said before, I'm gonna go through our little trip during the Summer in installments.
London : Check.
Now...THE CITY OF AMORRR.
Paris.

Paris was simply beautiful,
So elegant, yet so lovely.

We went from London to Paris in a train and I was excited the whole ride. Couldn't wait to see Paris!
And on the way there in the train, I happened to notice some interesting graffiti.
There was one that said, 'Jonas Brothers Rock'. I may seem to like that graffiti artist. Haha :)

About to get on to the train. 
So we made our way to Paris. We saw the Eiffel Tower obviously. And it was amazing seeing it from upfront.
The first day there we went to Disney Land. YEAHHH.
It was just like the Los Angeles one. Except for the fact that it was in Paris.
We were there for a whole day, just chilling out and going through all the lands. My brother despised Fantasy Land. I thought it was pretty cute :)


That night, my parents went to the Lido show. My brother and I couldn't go, so we hung out in our hotel.

Over the days in Paris, we visited bunch of historical places. The Arch of Triumph, Napoleon's Tower and you know, the usual. We shopped around and got some cool stuff. And I happened to notice the amazing fashion trend there in Paris. Everywhere you look around, people are wearing something crazy but defining themselves. It's sort of cool, you know. Just wearing whatever you want, pairing things like a white gown with cowboy boots and a hoodie. Haha I haven't seen that, but just saying.

But anyways, here are two more pictures from PARISSSSS.

The Beautiful Eiffel Tower.


There was this one time when I went to the Customer's Service at the mall in Paris to ask for some One Direction stuff. There were two girls there. One of them didn't know who they were. Daddy had to repeat their name like thrice. The other girl immediately turned around and said, "You mean, the band with the five guys who sing around?" I laughed, hoping they would be there. But she shook her head, saying, "Nope. Not here in Paris." My heart dropped all the way to the floor.

Haha, but anyways.
Now that's done.
Stay right there till the next Brussels/Amsterdam post!

Oh, and in the mean time, here's a little picture that happened to catch my eye on the streets of Paris.

The girl on the right and left is wearing a goat around her neck. The fashion of Paris, I will never understand.

LONDONNN :)

Our trip took it's first checkpoint straight at London. 
We got out of the airport to see it raining. It just made the city look even more beautiful :)
We looked around at the beautiful city for a while. It seriously was amazing. So different from America and the other places I've been to. It was special and unique in it's own way. The buildings seemed more historical and the people felt more formal and distant. It was like living in my own personal 1960's :)
We went to Madame Tussaud's the first day. And hell, was I excited. Every single person I recognized, my stomach would just flip and I'd get all psyched out. You should've seen me when I saw the first wax statue staring down at me. I was practically shrieking. Especially when I saw that Taylor Lautner. I was like melting. When I took a picture next to him, it felt like I've actually stood next to the 'real' him. It still feels like that to be honest :) Madame Tussaud's was amazing!
That reminds me to this time when I was looking at the Justin Bieber wax statue and this group of four guys posed next to him as though they were beating him up. It was actually quite funny. Haha :)

The next day, we took a tour around the city. Went to Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace, London Bridge, London Eye and I forgot the rest. Hehe. 
Oh come on, you can't blame me. That whole city can pass of as a monument. No kidding.
Oh yes, we went to the Tower of London as well. It was beautiful. That Jewel House was crazy impressive.

We only stayed for a day and a half in London. I know right? That's short, but London was just our starting point. We weren't really supposed to stay there anyways. But daddy said that we might just go to London for you know, chilling out and just walking around the place, next summer if things go right. Just might. Like just might.

Later, the next evening we took an Eurostar Train to Paris. And there ends our London Journey. Crisp and short, but really fun. 

A few shots below. I don't think I'm allowed to put any pictures of myself, but either way, not happening today. Haha, that rhymed :)



That place is like real heavennnn :D


THE TAYLORRR.


Tom Cruise looked hell real. He was a real getter too. 


Just a normal street in the crazy beautiful city of London.


I don't remember this building :\ I just thought it was...cool.


Another cool looking building I just can't seem to remember. I remember somebody mentioning something about it being a Gothic design or something. I don't know.

Kay that's enough pictures for now. Haha :)



I'M BACKKK!

IT FEELS LIKE AN ETERNITY SINCE I TYPED IN THIS LITTLE BOX. 
But anyways,
I'M BACK! I'M BACK! AND I'M BACK!

How are you doing? I hope you're having a real BLAST this summer (for those of you who do have summer break now). And well me? Everyday is something new. Something fun.Trust me, this summer has been great. Got to do what I wanted to. Perfectly planned. Although we get a freaking little month :\ But whatever. It's been amazing.

Europe's been amazing. Such a beautiful place. Crazy beautiful. But we couldn't stay at one place too long. We went to ten different countries. YEAHHH! 
United Kingdom, France, Belgium, Amsterdam, Switzerland, Austria, Liechtenstein, Italy, Germany and Vatican City. 

Unfortunate to my interest, I couldn't get a single freaking One Direction thing :( Well actually, when we were in London, I found bunches of gazillions of 1D stuff at Madame Tussaud's, but then I thought, I could get them somewhere else. But I couldn't. I found this one book and magazine of 1D in the Rome Airport, but guess what? They were in Italian. How very lucky. 
-.-

But anyways, the rest of it had been ahhhh delightful. 
I came back on Thursday actually. But I hadn't been on Blogger as of then...uh...I was too lazy. Hehe :)

I'm not gonna end now. It's too quick to sum up everything that I've seen throughout the trip. So I'm just gonna type it out in segments. How does that sound? Eh? Haha, that makes me sound like Hagrid :)
