Today we started the day with a tour of Stade de France!! We got to see the soccer and rugby player's locker rooms, the president's entrance, and walk through the hall of fame for the stadium's past performers and memorable teams. The most exciting part of the tour was running through the same entrance tunnel as the professionals onto the field with music playing! We had the afternoon free to explore and many people spent the day shopping and sight seeing. In the evening half of the group attended a show at the Moulin Rouge while others explored the city. The show at the Moulin Rouge was absolutely amazing! The dancing was beautiful and the costumes were flashy with feathers, glitter and beads. Everyone in attendance loved the show and had very positive reviews. The group has also really enjoyed seeing the Eiffel Tower at night, every hour for the first 5 minutes the tower glitters with lights. Many people have made trips to the platforms of the tower to view the city of Paris. Our time in Paris is flying by fast, there is so much to do but so little time.
On another note, we are not able to use calling cards from our hotel and there is a charge to use the internet so it will be difficult to stay in touch as much as we would like.
Au revior!
