The 11th of October

 Today we went to the Lourve, a place where the Mona Lisa and many other famous artworks are kept. To get there we went on a hop on/off bus. On the way we saw heaps of sights around Paris including the Arc de triomph, Notre Dame, Palaces and lots of other stuff. After the Lourve and a very expensive lunch of 45 Euro (4 sandwichs and 4 drinks) we got on the bus back to the Effiel Tower.

We then went on an evening boat ride along the Seine River. It was really interesting and fun. We had some snacks on the boat as well. After another busy day out we came home and went fot a swim and now it;s bed time. Night Night!

Today we went to the Eiffel Tower. We walked down to it as it is only a few blocks away and we can see it from our hotel. When we got there we had to line up for the tickets and then once we had them we went to the elevator and took that up to the second floor. We stayed there for about an hour and then we had to get in the line to go up ot the Sommet top. At the top it is amazing you can see everything. There is a room which you can stand in at the top or you can go right up onto the roof. We all went out on the roof to see the veiw of Paris.

The 9th of October

Today we went to The Beatles Story, it was very interesting as we learn't the history of the Beatles and how there band came together. After going to The Beatles Story we went down to Church street and had a little bit of a shop (it was our last chance to shop in the U.K so we bought as much as we could!). Then we went back to the hotel to get our bags and get ready to go on the plane. While we were at the airport we brought some dinner as it would be the last chance to get some.
We got our dinner from boots (which is a chemist!!).Our plane flight was ment to take about an hour but we were about 25 minutes early. When we got to Paris we had a man waiting for us to take us to our hotel. After that we checked in and went to bed.

The 7th of October

 First off sorry we haven't done a blog in a while we've been sooooo busy with all our traveling and plane flights, so right now I'm making this post from Paris.

Anyway on Sunday we went on the train from London to Liverpool. The train took about 3 hours. When we got to Liverpool we gota taxi to our hotel, went for lunch and went shoping in church street. Our hotel were the old Albert docks building that had been converted, they were very nice.

We also went for a walk around the Docks to see what they were like. It was really cool to see how each different place had changed the old buildings, some had kept more of the original building than others. We had a  nice relaxing day and didn't see to much but it was fun.

The 6th of October

The view from the top of St Paul's Cathedral
Today we went to St Paul's Cathedral. Mum
and Daniel climbed about 600 stairs to get to
the right to the top. It was very tiring. We weren't allowed to take pictures inside but it was incredible. The whispering gallery was my favourite because if you whispered into the wall you could hear it all the way around the other side of the room. The wispering gallery is a circle room that has a diameter of 30.2m.
 We also went to Oxford street today and it was packed!! You could hardly walk around. Mum and I went into a shop called Primark, where they had really cheap clothes, but the shop was almost as packed as the street, which made it really hard to move around and really hot. Another day of sore feet but lots of fun.
A cool phone box that we saw when we where walking along.
