Second Real Day in Paris!

Went to orientation today (it takes about 25 minutes to get to BU's office from our dorm) and took a fun placement test. Sam and I both placed into the higher level and so we're able to take two electives. I'm taking a literature course and an art history. Literature should be really fascinating and I'm taking art history to acquire some sort of appreciation for paintings, etc, because I really am just not a fan, and I probably should be. At least while I'm in Paris.

After orientation stuff, Sam and I went out for a lovely walk. We walked down le Champs de Mars and all around the Eiffel Tower. We got some fabulous pictures. Here's a sampling:

We're probably going to grab dinner at the cafeteria on campus here because it's ridiculously inexpensive. We ate there last night with some new friends (yes, we've made some! It's very exciting!) and while it wasn't exactly Dad or Christine's home cooking, it was edible. And did I mention that it's incredibly cheap?
