Dress Archie does PARIS!!!

After some exciting nights in Barcelona (including one in which yours truly accidently took the group to a club in Barcelona frequented by gay men), the group departed by Easy jet to Paris for our longest part of our europe trip. Immediately it was clear Paris was gonna more relaxed than our previous stops. First off, Paris nightlife isn't as active on weeknights as Barcelona's and second there is a lot to do in Paris during the day. Pretty much for the first time on this trip, our europe group became real tourists taking advantage of Paris' multiple sights. We started it off with a trip to the Louvre. For all you Civ takers out there, the Louvre is actually pretty tight. Really really big paintings. Like a lot bigger than those dinky slides in front of M-20. That night we found a bar on Blvd San Germain and ranked girls as they walked by (side note, of all the cities we've been too so far, Paris by far has the most talent). The next day, Monday, we walked the Champs Elysees or as one member of our group called it "the famous street." A lot of good stores for those futbol lovers out there. That night we saw Ocean's 13 which has my full endorsement now. If you wanna get in a good mood, go to the newest of the three. Not quite as good as the first, but much better than the second. HungryforTacos put it best when he said it was just a really happy movie. Tuesday was pretty much a throw away day. Many of us went and saw the famous Musee d'Orsay and its impressionist art. More civ and such. Wednesday was the most enjoyable day of the trip so far for me because guess what we got to do...SHOPPP!!!! (no homo). Actually, Paris (and maybe France on the whole) has this kinda weird but actually tight thing where the government mandates that every store have sales from now until the fall collection comes out. So we took trips to all of the HOT stores in Paris including Salvatore Ferragamo, Chanel, and Dolce and Gabbana. Pretty much all we did there is get weird looks for how underdressed we were and try on all of the trendy glasses. That night we were treated to a magnificent dinner at one of Paris' nicest restaurants Chez George. Huge servings, so much that the namesake of this blog was served five herring in lemon water as an appetizer and couldn't finish it (an extremely rare occurence). That night we went to Paris' youngest club, Les Planches which was sickkkkk. Hella good music (a lot of techno) but once again a few too many guys and not enough girls (where do they go? I see them during the day everyday but they dissappear at like 8 at night everywhere! WTF mate?). Now it is off to Amsterdam and the craziest part of this famous trip. All I can say is that the next blog post will be very entertaining.
