Spring Break 2010: Paris and Barcelona

Over my spring break from school my friend, Randi, and I traveled to Paris, France and Barcelona, Spain. We spent 4 days in each city and saw and did too many things to post on this blog. We saw the Mona Lisa and many other paintings in the Louve Museum, The Eiffel Tower, The Notre Dame cathedral, and ate crepes and croissants in Paris.

In Barcelona we relaxed on the beach, we ate paella (which is a typical rice dish), saw a Flamenco dancing show, and saw beautiful and interesting buildings. These are just some of the major things that we did but we also just walked around a lot and explored. I like seeing how people live in other places, not just the big monuments, although the Eiffel tower was pretty amazing!
