The one thing I love about airplanes is the one thing everyone else seems to hate, turbulance. There are always bumps while riding in an airplane. But normal bumps make me feel like I'm in dad's old boat car. You hit a bump and then see-saw back down. Makes your tummy cry in pain if your like me and get sea sick. Turbulance is more like riding in a jeep or my old ford focus. You hit a bump, you go up you feel the bump, you go down and you feel the bump. Then it's over and your fine.
Another funny tid-bit about flying. When someone opens a bathroom door while your trying to sleep, it sounds like someone is opening a car window. Which is fine in a car but freaky in a plane! Never fear there were no snakes in this plane.
Ok so we landed in Paris, France. We had been advised to hide all our electronics when we got off the plane so my camera had to be put in my coat. Sorry no pictures of much of Paris's airport. We got out luggage then took a tram to the underground train station. We hung out inside by the trainstation some. I had to venture out to the smoking area over looking the platforms. Did I mention I hadn't smoked up until now? Getting a little crabby... yea buddy.
The first pictue is looking toward the airport and the second is just turning around and looking at the platforms.
We also learned that it take 50 cents to go pee here. My bank only gave me bills so I went looking for someone/thing that would change bills in to the coins so I could go potty. After staring at 2 machines and ticking off 3 people with my wonderful lack of French I succeeded to buy a feta cheese, tomato and cucumber sandwitch for 6 euros and got change. Then I ran to pee.
Then the only thing we had left to do was wait at the platform for the train to come in. This is where I'll have to continue until later. I have a class in an hour and have to walk up the mountain side. But wait until you see views from my walk to school!
