Day 3 in Paris, Europe - Effiel, Lourve

After checking out the hotel, we proceed to have lunch, and then to visit the famous Eiffel Tower. But as soon as we snap the first picture, the rain came down hard on us, with strong wind, under the romantic eiffel tower

The Eiffel Tower (French: La Tour Eiffel, [tuʁ ɛfɛl]) is an iron lattice tower located on the Champ de Mars in Paris. It was named after the engineer Gustave Eiffel, whose company designed and built the tower. Erected in 1889 as the entrance arch to the 1889 World's Fair,

Thank God, after 20-30 min, the rain stopped and it became sunny, which was perfect for photo-taking !

 Recommend by friend to the river cruise tour, about 1 hr. And due to shortage of time, It was the best to visit Paris as it is.......

 After the tour, I went back to G.L to do last minute shopping of LV and Prada....  And then walked to see the famous Lorve.....(about 20min walk)

The Lourve









After the lourve, it was time to head back to the hotel area, had some quick dinner and then to say goodbye.. and Leave Paris for Amsterdam !

It was a short 3 days in Paris, but we knew we are gonna return back to Paris before we good, and after we visit, we are sure to return longer the next time ! I guess, even for 2 weeks, it will be too short for Paris !

After carrying the luggage up and down the flights of stairs 3-4 time,, we finally reach the bus station to depart for Amsterdam.... 7 1/2 hours bus ride, Good luck to us....

 Internet stated that they have a toilet inside the bus which is not true !

Day 2 in Paris - Notre Dame

View of beautiful Paris

Day 2 - Is a bright sunny Sunday, the weather is perfect, everything was slow, and people busking on the street made Paris even more romantic

                                               Visiting some tourist site of Paris

                                                                Notre Dame

Finally, some quality shopping time !
Take the RER towards disneyland direction, stop at Val D'Europe and walk about 10 minutes.

                                               Sunday shopping at La Vallee Village

The trip is definitely worth it..... We reach about 1300++ and only left at 1900 hrs when it closes !

Our shopping stuffs just from the factory outlet , of course, most of it are not ours !

Saturday Drilling by the Beach !

Last last week, the usual gang decide to have a random grilling kind of BBQ. So we met at 1130hrs at Zac, 

To purchase meat and beef!

And then bought drinks from spc, then went bought to buy fire starter and plain water

Then finally found the spot to set up, and then Zp wearing his sunglass, then it was drizzling

Then we shifted back to the shelter.

He took off the sunglass and the rain stopped. so we shifted out again.

                                                  Our assistant chef to help in seasoning !

Then the grilling process was slow, and the hungry people started to eat tibits while waiting for food.

                                                          Nutella cake made by Dear ZP

Half way while waiting for the main food, we decided to play the monopoly card which I never played before. So they taught me which I won 3 games after that !

                                  First steak done for the day, but got to wait for the steak to cool.

                                                        We played  and eat at the same time !

A very belated birthday celebration with the gang, and cake made by Ying !

It was a cool and fun Saturday, and lovely day spend with close friends !

SIN - DOHA - CDG

Finally it was the time for us to travel to Europe ! Excited and anxious about it ! It has been a long time!

Great disappointment ! When we reach the airport , the system was down , and the line was so long that we waited for almost one hour before we could check in the luggage and get the boarding pass. 

Both the family and the good friend ,eddy were there to send us off . 

So we board Qatar airway for the very time to transit Doha.... Food was ok, but we are quite tired that most of the time we slept . Love the cabin light when they dim it .

And so we reach Doha and the airport area was huge and they got to transfer you by bus from like bedok to tamp. did a quick and short transfer . Maybe just enough time to pee. And board the plane again to Paris . Slept abit.

And we finally reach Paris ! 

I thought paris airport was huge but doesn't seem so ... Hmm... Then we start to find transport back to hotel as we have huge luggage, it will be troublesome to carry them around the subway. So we paid 17euro for the bus to montparnasse.

 When we reach gare montparnasse , tried to figure the area and tried to walk to the hotel with 2 luggage. Along the way, u could see the effiel tower .

 We finally manage to find the hotel, but was too early for check in. So we went to the nearly food joint for some brunch and dinner.

Our hotel :

Nearest station : Pernety , 20m across the station in a calming and relaxing neigbourhood. Affordable price with compact room size, but good enough for sleeping.

                                          After which we went to Galeries Lafayette

Nearby opera station

                                                                Last of all

                                My first ever Chanel, even if it was just a pair of earrings ...
