Happy Chinese New Year!
today, we woke up at around 11plus, bathed and get ready to head down to champs elysees again for banking issues and then we walk down champs elysees to look around hopefully can get some cheap buys which is highly impossible at champs elysees. so we walked down towards the direction of Arc de Triomphe to cam-whore! Along the way there was alot museums and places of sight-seeing.
for lunch, i went "Quick Burger". It is another fast food chain in France. I ordered Club Poulet which cost 6.70eur!!! *expensive*

Day 5 ~ Sacre Coeur, Chinese New Year

Day 5 ~ Sacre Coeur, Chinese New Year

Today was Chinese New Year Eve, so the guys went to Chinatown to collect the food that we had ordered earlier on. We ordered 2 ducks, 2 chicken and 1kg of roasted beef. So while the guys went to collect our stuff, us the 2 girls we head down to look for a cheaper supermarket called Ed, the one which my french friends recommended us. On the way there we chanced upon a tourist attraction which we didn't know of called Sacre Coeur.

Day 4 ~ Rest Day

today, we spend the day at home slacking and resting.
why resting you may ask, because our house is situated on top of a hill-like area.
so everyday when we go out for sight seeing we will walk and then when we return we'll have to climb the super exhausting long walk up to our house.
our leg muscles are exhausted from all the walking and climbing from the past 2 days.

i spent time at home using the com and checking out stuff that i have missed so far...
thats all for now...

bonne nuit

Day 3 ~ Tolbiac aka Chinatown

i finally see the sun in Paris!

the weather was pretty fine today except for the strong cold wind ><

i went to champ elysees today again to withdraw money and walk along the streets we haven't covered yesterday.

then we head our way to Tolbiac which is also known as the chinatown of Paris.
the place was really Chinatown, everywhere you go you'll see chinese or asians!
