Day 1 pre-Camino PARIS!





Paris! Oh Paris is beautiful, but don't be deceived, it's also big, dirty, smoky, and  confusing.  Although I had been to the Miraculous Medal shrine twice before it still took us at least an hour to find the place. The metro lines are quite an elaborate system and the people aren't so helpful. 
Nonetheless we got to see Notre Dame, the Eiffel Tower, and the Miraculous Medal shrine in the 4 hours we had in Paris!  Not bad at all!  Then we hopped a very expensive train to Lourdes.  I can't wait to see Lourdes again!  FYI some things have changed since I was here last... Everyone buys their train tickets online and in advance?! Living in Belize has given me a big set back in the area of planning ahead!  But at least my time in Belize will help me go with the flow when there are unexpected bumps in the road on this trip!
