Digging Things Up From the Past


Catacombs on Friday the 13th anyone? I did. Here's a brief glimpse:


Those would be real live bones. CREEPY!

I've been staying with one of my old roommates from college for the last couple nights. We haven't seen each other since graduation. She moved to KC for law school, I was in St. Louis, life happens and we kind of lost touch. Then a couple days before leaving to come abroad one of our other roommates from college called me and said "are you going to see LaShawn while you're in Paris?" I was like "LaShawn's in Paris?" So, facebook to the rescue, we now have been able to spend a couple days in Paris together, catching up and hanging out like old times - her studying and me not so much.... Tonight we got to celebrate because LaShawn just landed her first law job today - Congrats LaShawn! Doesn't her degree sound so impressive: International Business Law and something to do with France too. We celebrated with a great Thai dinner. (I'm about done with the French food)

We also tackled the Louvre tonight - so impressive. I enjoyed it even more than I ever imagined. Probably helped that I had my own personal tour guide in LaShawn.

Insert from LaShawn: (she made me promise that I wouldn't delete it)

Thanks Nicole for dinner!!!! mmmm Thai fooood :)

Thanks LaShawn for putting me up for 4 nights. It's made my last days here even more memorable.

Yay! I can stay! =)

That's so cool that you were able to hook up with a friend in Paris! The closest comparison I have is meeting our friends Mike & Nancy in Orlando...at Disney World's Treasure Island, for crying out loud...

Yeah, we can do better, & hopefully some day we will!

Forgive me, I've been drinking wine - we went to a huge food & wine pairing here in the Lou, & only a tiny bit was French. Not that I'm complaining. Can't wait to read about where you are next!
