5e Arrt.

The fifth arrondissement was one of the coolest in my opinion! It started off really well still in the metro station! On the ceiling of the Cluny La-Sorbonne metro station, there is a mural of glass pieces lining the ceiling with words surrounding them. It looks almost like scales of a mermaid because of the deep purples and blues. It instantly put me in a good mood and set me up for an even better day. We went to the Pantheon, which was unbelievable! I still can’t decide if the outside or the inside is more beautiful. The way the light fills the room makes you feel like your problems have melted away and everything will be okay.


 After the Pantheon we headed toward the 6^th district. On the way we found the Hotel de Suez which was priced at a very cheap 109€ a night. There was a grocery store very close with prices of milk for 1.45€, eggs for 3.98€ and steak for 34€/kg. The steak was very expensive! It must be made from only the prettiest of cows.
            When you think of Paris, you think of basic things like the Eiffel Tower and Notre Dame. When it comes to clothes in Paris, I always think of scarves! We found a super cool shop called Diwali that sold scarves of all colors and fabrics. It had Indian influence and I loved all of them. They also had some awesome jewelry!
A few weeks ago on our way to the Notre Dame, we came out of the metro stop and found a stunning fountain, the Fontaine Saint-Michel. We each took our turn throwing a coin into the fountain over our shoulders and making wishes! (Maybe I wished for Mckinley to get pooped on by a Gargoyle… but even I am not that creative. That was sheerly the heavens smiling down on us for our amusement and a good story for Kinley.)
