On Thursday, we once again headed to Paris 4 to register for some classes with French students...but of course the office we needed to consult was closed. We did however find a philosophy class we are very interested in taking. I also found a yoga class at the Sorbonne...hmmm, I hope that works out!! Afterwards, we got Nutella crêpes and headed to Carrefour, a cheap grocery store to stock up on food. Later that night, some UConn students sat in the audience of a French TV show (which was apparently pretty cool...they are stars now!), but I headed into the Latin Quarter to do some more exploring. I ended up at Notre Dame and stayed for the mass. I then met up with Hannah WEITZMAN at a café across the street and enjoyed a nice view of the church. 2013 marks the 850th anniversary of Notre Dame so the city is setting up for some celebrations and renovations of the church and bells. Around 9:00 we met up with some other students and climbed to the top of the Arc de Triomphe to see Paris lit up! It was beautiful! And around 11:00 Monica (my BFF from UConn; also a nutrition major and Endurance runner) arrived in Paris for her weekend visit from Grenada.
