First Day - Paris

The trip on the Eurostar was really long, and was delayed because of problems in the tunnel that goes from England to France, I was really excited I was finally going to Paris, after it getting cancelled in January and also after not going last year because of cancelation. When we arrived we walked to our hostel the Generator, which was very nice, we left our bags there and then went on our first adventure. The first museum we went to was called The Pompidou Centre, which showed modern art, which I found boring and didn't get any inspiration from. I only took one photo of an art piece I found pretty, which you can see bellow.
Then we walked to the Notre Dam, to see the building, then we walked back, along the way back I thought the shops looked more interesting then the area we was looking at. On the way there, I wound an interesting window display which I thought could inspire my project and also a merry Go Round, which I thought was also inspiring, though I wish I could of taken nicer photos of it.
We also saw the Eiffel tower, and I wasn't expecting it to be so close to the road. Then went on a Bateaux Parisians river tour, later then expected, it was interesting, specially how big the Louvre is (it would take about four months to walk all around it).
We had dinner very late, about 12pm in a local restaurant to our hostel. I didn't understand the menu which is very frustrating and ended up getting a salad, because I couldn't find any other vegetarian option. I had got a migraine and felt dehydrated from the long day we had, so was glad went I got to go to sleep, as a good night sleep heals headaches.
