We made it safely to Paris. It was quite an adventure to get to the hostel. We got in around 9:30ish this morning but due to our moderate pacing and being our tourist we finally made it in to the hostel around 2 PM.
Ridiculous? Yes.
Adventure Fact #1 - Figuring out how to get out of the airport was an adventure. We felt a bit sheepish that we had to ask the information person how to get to the train... twice.
Adventure Fact #2 - The train station at "Nord" something or other is nice. We should know since we were stuck there trying to find out how to buy stupid metro passes. We finally find the booth to buy it at and then we end up needing photos! The real adventure is trying to comprehend the massive transit system they have in Paris for the first time. It's really awesome how there's a train going everywhere practically at anytime. We needed some time to get our bearings and then we we're off.
Pictures of our first day in Paris as well as more stories from the road to come.
