Well well well, the original plan after bruge had been to go up to London and have a jolly good time with the chaps up there but..... we could not get a train to London the day we were suppose to go.  After a little cussing "Bollocks" we figured we should just skip London and save that for another trip.  The next stop we had planned was Paris so thats where we headed off to.  We had to wait in Brussels station for a while but it gave us some time to find an Internet Cafe and cancel our hostel reservations in London and book a shady hotel in Paris for the first night.  Soon we stepped into our High speed train and zoomed towards Paris at 300 km per hour.  It was a really fast trip which was nice because being on trains for 8 hours can really suck!  When we got to Paris we had no idea where to go but some really nice French people pointed us in the right direction and we found our hotel in no time.  Well...the hotel room wasnt too well maintained and had super loose linolium.  The toilet was literally a hole in the ground and when you flushed water seemed to come up first onto the floor and then down.  It was a funny experiance non the less and we had a relaxed night and ate bagettes.  The next day we found a hostel and got 3 nights there.  This is probably also one of the dodgiest hostels we've been in and the beds have no sheets.  After checking into the hostel we caught the metro down to st micheals square and found the free tour of Paris.  This tour had a lot of cute girls on it.  Our guide was  a foul tounged American and was super cool.  We walked around for 4 hours and saw a lot of very beutiful buildings and monuments.  The only problem was Paris is so huge that a lot of the things they show you on the tour are very far away.  After the tour we chatted with some of the cute girls and decided it would be a good idea to walk to the Eiffel Tower.  It took about 30 minutes to walk and it was MASSIVE.  We got a  lot of cool pictures of it.  After that we split up with the girls exept for one called Emily and we proceded to Notre Dame.  The Church is pretty cool but it just seemed like a huge money scheme.  They were selling Candles for 5 euros and coins for 3, pretty rediculous if you ask me.  We excited the church and hopped on the metro to go to the highest point in Paris and drink wine and eat cheese and baggetes.  Its super nice up there and you get a view of all of Paris.  The wine was very tasty and soon we had 3 bottles down the hatch.  We began to head back to the hostel because we had planned to go to the Pub Crawl with a the cute girls from earlier.  We got to the pub crawl meeting point and it turns out we missed it.  We walked around a bit and then it started to rain so we got some cheap vodka and headed back to the hostel.  We proceded to get super drunk and the hostel and meet some people that I cant really remember.  The nights a bit hazy but it was a good time till the next morning.  Hangover/very little sleep for me(Rasmus).  We cooked some spagetti and sauce for breakfast but only Adam could eat it cause I was a bit to hungover.  For the better part of the morning we sat outside in the courtyard and met some other guys and just relaxed.  Later I was feeling better and Adam, an American named Chris and I headed toward a graveyard where Jim Morrison, Oscar Wilde, and Chopin was buried.  This graveyard was massive and had a lot of cool looking graves.  Someone told us over 700 000 people were buried there.  We wandered around there for a while and then headed to a 6 o'clock artsy tour or France.  It was a tour that was just starting so we got to do it for free.  We had the same guide as they day before and the tour was very interesting and humorous.  We got to see the Moulin Rouge, Van Goghs crib, Picassos Crib and a lot of other famous places.  The tour only lasted 2 hours or so and we had plenty of time to get to the pub crawl.  This pub crawl was a lot more relaxed then the Berlin one and we didnt really get drunk but we had the chance to talk to some cool people.  The highlight of the night was probably when they took us to a Lesbian/Gay bar for some reason.  Some guy really thought Adam was cute and tried to hit on him for about 20 minutes.  I found it pretty funny but Adam was a bit disturbed when the guy started rubbing his arm and stuff.  He continued to drop awsome lines like "im not gunna rape you.....unless you want me too!"  We left the bar and about twenty paces away Adams admirer ran to the door and called him a Mother          F#$%er!  The crawl wasnt to great after that and we decided to go home and get some rest.  We took it easy this morning as well and then went out to reserve our trains and buy some tourist stuff.  We had plans to go to some catacombs but it costs 7.50 euros and we are poor so we just walked around a bit.  That pretty much brings us up to date.  Tonight we are gunna cook some pasta and drink some beers at the hostel and get to bed early because tomorrow we head to NICE!!!  Beaches and Gorgeous girls!

Love Raz and Adam
