We are now in Paris, as of Saturday morning. The train ride and arrival was a bit of a whirlwind because it was in the morning and then we had to go to the hostel and then back to the metro so that our guide, Claude, could show us where our university restaurant is. Let me tell you, traveling with ~23 people in the Paris metro is not fun.
In any case, we went to the resto-u and had lunch, after which I went to the Catacombs with some people. It’s really intense.
After waiting in line and paying the under 25 price of €4, we went down a lot of stairs, walked through underground tunnels and eventually arrived at the bones. The are all set up in different formations. It’s kind of creepy to think about because people had to set this up and dig the tunnels and stuff. At one point, for a while, it was raining on us underground. Gross.
