Finally got some wireless on my iPod. Can't type a lot on it though-- small keyboard. Hard to type in Internet cafes cause the keyboard is really different. It's not a qwerty board. Quite a few letters are "misplaced", mking it really difficult to type efficiently.

Flight to JFK was only an hour. Connecting from jfk to paris was delayed 2.5 hours. Sat on taxi strip waiting for take off took forever! And when we finally got there, we were told out luggage wasn't there yet. Didn't get delivered to our hotel til 24 hrs later. Watched the tour de France yesterday. So many ppl!! Went to notre dame cathedral during the Sunday mass too. Beautiful. Woke up late this mining, but finally getting over jet lag. Spent the day at the louvre, saw the Mona lisa. Went through champs élysées and saw Eiffel tower. Wanted to go up, but the lineups were huge, so we just took lots of pictures of it haha. Been eating a lot of pasta for staying in Paris, France.

The metro here is pretty crazy, but the leaning curve isn't steep. Driving is pretty all over the place tho, and it's kinds scary walking across the street sometimes. Weather was really hot yesterday, but today we had rain and it cooled down quite a bit; probably low 20s. Going to Versailles tmrw, and if we have time, the catacombs. Flying to Barcelona tmrw night. Nam has much more interesting stories, but his fingers are too big for my iPod. Comments would be appreciated on the blog itself, as I'm not checking twitter and facebook as frequently. Tell me your addresses if you want a postcard!!
