Day 4

As the majority of the girls slept silently and went to breakfast all of the rugby team including the teachers jogged to the track in the park which was 10 hundred metre lengths and jogged back. People on the more physical side were challenged to do 200 meter lengths after before jogging back to the hotel. Although everyone was really tired when they came back, everyone tried not to complain as they were going to Paris later on.




When we reached the train station, we all bought our tickets however as we went on the train we jumped off quickly thinking we had been mistaken however it when we realised that it was it hadn't left the station yet. Getting confused on the first train on our own wasn't the best thing to boost our self esteem. When we arrived at our first sight seeing (Arc de triomphe) everyone got their cameras out and snapped a few shots of the magnificent building. Before we left this building, Ellie took a photo of everyone with the Arc de triomphe in the background.




After this, we decided to go and see The Louvre however we seemed to stop in a few shops on the way, as well as seeing some well known shops like 'Cartier' , 'Louis Vuitton' and 'Hugo Boss'. As we made our way to the Louvre we went into some of the car shops such as ' Citren', 'Mercedes' and 'Peugeot', as well as sports shops like 'Nike' and 'Addidas'.



While we were walking, some people stopped for ice cream since everyone was boiling hot. As we approached the Louvre, we all realised that there was a lot of entertainment on the streets. There was people trying to sell Key rings, Some people bought bracelets and some people tried to sell us souvenirs.



As we stood outside the Louvre, all of us got our cameras out and snapped shots at the famous building. Within ten minutes, everyone had their photos and some people decided to relax outside and enjoy the glorious sun while others went inside the Louvre to explore the amazing paintings.

As the end of the day approached, everyone was tired and I can certainly say that everybody, had an early night so they were ready and prepared for the next day.
