this weekend

so we had a decently eventful weekend.

Friday night we bought take out chinese food from the place around the corner. Not good =P Will probably not go back.

Saturday, we went with my friend Maggie to the Salon du Chocolate. As the name suggest, it is all about chocolate. It's a huge exposition all about chocolate. We got to try a lot of samples and Germain bought some cookies he really likes. In his defense, it was cheaper than at the supermarket. They had chocolate everything there! However, not every booth gave things out to try. =( but we did get a fair share of samples.

an all chocolate Arc de Triomphe. It was very impressive!
look it all that chocolate!
oo pretty
Today was the rugby world championship. France was playing against New Zealand. Unfortunately we loss. Germain is quite upset about that. It was only by one point too!!

Afterwards we went with some friends to the Catacombs. We had to wait an hour and a half before going in. Luckily it was a pretty day out.


Catacombs are where they moved 6 million human remains. They excavated all the remains from local cemeteries and buried them underground. We had to walk down a long spiral staircase and through a series of tunnels. There were a lot of bones and skeletons. Pretty creepy. 

a high and pretty ceiling underground
bones and skulls
just a glimpse of all the skeletons
It was a pretty long walk.

And tomorrow back to school. But this week is only my two hour class. I don't have my phonetics class. yay ^_^
