Lost in Paris, France



 

Three years ago my husband and I made a travel to Europe; we visited different countries. But we will never forget going to Paris. There are two reasons why we won’t forget it, one because it is a beautiful city, and the second one because we experienced an anguished odyssey. The first day we visited the Notre – Dame Cathedral, the Elysees Champ and The Arch of Triumph. Everything was perfect and we were so happy, but the second day we went to the Eiffel Tower. We loved the place, we walked  around there all day, and we waited for the night to arrive because we wanted to see the Tower in the night with all the lights on. The time passed very fast and we knew that our last bus left at 10:00pm. When we saw the clock, it was10:30, we thought it is ok we can search for a taxi. We decided to go to dinner at a restaurant, and when we finished the dinner, we walked to search for a taxi but never saw one. So we decided to take a different bus; when the bus stopped we tries to ask the diver of the bus, and he said something like yes and when we needed to get off the bus, the man told us something but we did not understood. We walked and walked for a long time, and never saw our hotel. We were afraid because it was pass midnight and we couldn’t find our hotel. So we continued walking, and saw a man. We did not know if to ask him or not because we didn’t know if he was a good person, but we were lost and very tired and needed to find the hotel. So we decided to try to ask him, and thank God he was a good person; he tried to tell us and he walked with us a little bit, and we understood him. We walked by a construction site and finally at the distance we saw our hotel. This is a true history.

  1. My goodness, this is a crazy story! Europe is beautiful but you are right about the late evening walks - I can only imagine how scary it was. I'm glad you had a nice time overall and enjoyed the places you and your husband visited. :)
