Week #3 London/ Paris

My highlight for this week was our weekend trip to Paris! Though my week in London was full of adventure too. I went to Alnwick Castle where outside shots of the first Harry Potter film was filmed. I also got to visit Oxford for the first time.

Paris was fantastic! We really only had about a day and a half to do Paris so we fit a lot in. It was unnerving not knowing the language. Many people at least spoke a little English and we did not run into any problems but I felt bad not being able to communicate better. If I go back I will study more French beforehand.

The lock bridge #3. People lock their love on the bridge and then throw the key in the river. There are so many locks they are on to the third bridge now. I putĀ a lock on with some friends.

One thought on “Week #3 London/ Paris

  1. Visiting a country that speaks another language is always a bit challenging, but it sounds like you enjoyed Paris in spite of the language barrier. Michele
