its all Greek to me...(and Paris)

Man it is so hard to navigate around the blogger website when its in greek..I hope this works.
We arrived in Athens today, and im making the most of the free internet at the hostel we're staying at. In saying that, im insanely tired from sleeping - or trying to - at the airport last night so much of this may not make sense.
So..I've just spent the weekend in Paris with Soph. And what a weekend!
The number one highlight was spending time with mon bein amie Sophie, but other notable highlights were:
- The people watching....skinny french boys with perfect coifs, old ladies with that classic impecable french sense of style, neuilly boys, girls with loooong legs and gorgeous shoes, beautiful african people.. so much to look at!
-Witnessing the beginning of a dance craze which is taking the parisian youth by storm - Tecktoniks - look it up on youtube, its hilarious, think lanky white boys throwing thier limbs around interspersed with old 80's moves. And so much fun to do - ask me or Soph for a demonstration any time!
- The food - pastries, cheeses, bread, salads, gelato. and the phenomenon of eating dinner at 9pm was surprisingly satisfying.
- Partying at a 'select entry' club on the Champs which has only been open a week. Beautiful interior decorating and atmosphere. (not to mention trying out our Tecktoniks moves..)
And so so much more, but im afraid im in desparate need of a siesta. Hopefully photos to follow another day. Meanwhile we have 10days in Greece to look forward to now.
