At the Arc de Triumph

Today I had another excellent breakfast at the hotel then traveled to Montmarte, which was a huge old church on a hill.  It over looked the rest of Paris and had beautiful sculptures made of marble, gold, and other rocks and metals.  After the group had hot chocolate and coffee at a small cafe near Montmarte.

Afterwards we went to Atelier des Chef and made a meal of rice and shrimp, instructed by a French lady.  It wasn't as good as the previous meals I had eaten but since I made the meal and not a professional chef I can't complain, plus I learned how to make a new dish.

After the class we toured the Arc de Triumph, which had a long spiral staircase that had started to make me dizzy by the end of the climb.  The top had a great view of Paris though not as high as the Eiffel Tower. At the bottom we saw the eternal flame that marked the burial of four unknown soldiers.

After the Arc de Triumph we went to the different shops in Paris including Louis Vitton.  The prices were so high that I don't think I would shop there if I had just won the lottery.  Everything looked nice and luxurious but I could never use something that I spent thousands of dollars for without being paranoid about it being stolen, broken or lost.  We also saw a few cars that looked nice in another store, the average cost of a car there was probably thousands less than the average price of jewelry at Louis Vitton.  Afterwards we ate and drank at a small cafe/bar that had very good food for a bar.
After the bar we headed to see the show How to become a parision in one hour which was a comedy about the differences of culture between the French and others.  It was all in English which helped a lot because I probably would not have been able to understand any of the references if it was in French.  That was the last activity of the day and since I had been really tired the entire day I was nice to go to bed at ten for an early morning breakfast tomorrow.
