The hostel we wanted to stay at was booked, so they referred us to BVJ on Rue Jean-Jacques Rousseau (right off the Rue du Louvre, ooh la la). We walked by it like 10 times until we finally spotted it. After we dropped our stuff off, it was time for light window shopping (Christian Louboutin! Louis Vuitton! Ack!) and we hit a cafe.
Oh my, the cafe was good! I got steak with herb butter, fries and a salad with some tasty yet unrecognizable dressing on it. Jen got majorly hit on by the waiter (the dessert of the day is me! I come with caramel sauce!) and he was cute and funny. Then back to the hostel to sleep.
Me+hostel bed=unhappy fat girl. I got maybe 4 hours sleep. And the truckload of 16 year olds that were staying here also have no respect for stairs and started banging their way past our door at like 7. Boooooooo. And the shower was an epic fail. It was pulses of water. But I'm clean, at least. We rented a room for just us 2 to share tonight.
Pictures to come later. I'll be doing some touristy things later, after the chocolate convention. Eiffel Tower, here I come!
