From Cashel to Dublin to Paris to Lyon

Hello friends! Madeline here! This post is what we like to call a "highlights reel."

Let's begin in the teeny tiny town of Cashel! We walked around the town and checked into our hostel (that we like to refer to as the professors old, squeaky house from the Narnia movies). Then we explored the Rock of Cashel!









We then set out once again for Dublin and got in some last minute shopping before we caught our flight to Paris. But mostly, we found a Disney store and I was beyond excited.



Rapunzel seems less than amused by my enthusiasm...too bad!





We then arrived in Paris! Finally! It was a bit of a mess from the airport since the train we wanted to take wasn't running and we had no idea where they were herding us, but it all worked out fine and we had no major issues-just the typical trials of travel! We had the pleasure of staying with Katherine Knight for our 2 nights there, and got to experience Paris from the perspective of someone who lives there! (and could show us which metro line was correct).


Ahh Paris, what a wonderful day we had there! The weather was the best we've had thus far, and we stopped by all of the highlights and made notes of here to go when we return in a couple of weeks.



Yes! This is Maggie who made it all the way up those stairs to be first level of the Eiffel Tower! I made it to the second, but I only have pictures on the camera, so for now, here are some typical American-girls-that-think-their-Eiffel-Tower-pictures-are-artsy pictures.










Au revoir mes amis!
