Day 1 Journey to Paris

We arrived at school at 7.15am for an arrival at Ebbsfleet at 8.30 by coach. We were due to board the Eurostar at 9.35. On the Eurostar there was a café and doors that trapped us. Max's business skills managed to get him two refunds worth €7.40. After a two hour journey we arrived at Gare du Nord, Paris. We had schizophrenic weather. We went straight to the accommodation where we dropped off our luggage. We got the Métro with loads of stops but eventually we arrived at the 360 Panorama at Montparnasse Tower which was 210 metres high. There were 59 floors and one of the fastest lifts in Europe. We saw the Eiffel Tower and an astonishing view of Paris. We saw the big skyscrapers at La Defense which were really cool. We got squished on the way back because it was so busy at rush hour and we saw a Goth. We walked back to the accommodation and had dinner. We watched a game of soccer outside our window and then went upstairs to bed.
