Bonjour!!

Hey everyone! So far our Paris trip has been filled with exciting adventures, scene walks and great food. Yesterday morning, we split into four teams and did the Amazing Race. There were four destinations: the Louvre, Notre Dame, the Eiffel Tower and Arc de Triomphe. The total race was a few miles, so each team utilized different forms of transportation: the subway, bikes or walking. The subway was a very interesting experience for my team, because we realized about 15 minutes into our ride that we were going in the wrong direction. But with some help from a passerby, we got back on track.
 

These #B1GCats are ready for day ? in Paris! First on the agenda...an "Amazing Race!"

After the Amazing Race, we played our first game. It was exciting to play some different competition and finally be able to play together as a team.
 
We are currently on our way to our second game, and following the game we will be touring the Eiffel Tower. Thank you for your support, and wish us luck! :)
 
Sincerely,
Lydia
