KChoi: Hogwarts
Yeah, the Hogwarts' Platform 9 and 3/4 is right over there
But we're actually gonna go to France today!

We are so efficient, we woke up at 5
And left the house before 7
So, we have a lot of time and
It's gonna be a fun day!
Here it is. Platform 9 and 3/4. Its honestly
In the middle of all of this
Joan: Not that special. KChoi: Yeah.
But if you are a huge Harry Potter fan, you gotta take
your selfie or
you gotta take your photo here

our photos taken today, so
KChoi: It was actually my third photo though
Joan: Really? This was my second one.
Joan: Alright, shall we go to France now?
KChoi: So, we're at Kings cross, we have to go to St. Pancreas station, let's walk.
KChoi: Oh, and that's our alarm J: To wake up
KChoi: So early J: Hahha
We are at St. Pancreas now
Everything is closed
Because it's 7 o' clock in the morning
and it's Easter, so happy Easter!
KChoi: Happy Easter!
Joan: Everything is going to be closed today.
Joan: We got our coffee and our parfait
before we ride the train
KChoi: Oh
KChoi: Before there was a crowd and everything
KChoi: So it's good. We're just very compatible
Joan: we are KChoi: Travel companions, we both got up early like
Now we are going to take Eurostar and go to France!
On our way to France now, we are on the train.
We are now in Paris
Where all the buildings are photogenic. Well London too but,
I feel like Paris has a different vibe
but we're here, and we are calling our Uber.
We made it to our Airbnb
Look how nice it is!
It's so white and minimal.
KChoi: Just your style
It's totally my aesthetic and the shower room is so nice!
Wow~ Yeah~
Need to charge my phone, and look, Europe has the same one as Korea.
Yay!!~
KChoi: Look at mine by contrast J: Oh, I know haha~
This is so gonna be convenient when I charge anything perfect!~
We are leaving our Airbnb now to explore Paris, I came here before but I was only
here for only a couple hours, i only went to that Eiffel tower, went by the Louvre but I didn't really uhh..
get to explore Paris
but, today and 2 more days after today right?
We are going to do whatever we can to see all of Paris
uh.. remember yesterday's vlog where we did like over 20 things in London? I think we are going to do that today in Paris
We are walking around, and we are noticing that a lot of stores and restaurants are closed
why is that?
KChoi: It's Easter
It's Easter
KChoi: but, I think It's like one down there Joan: okay Last time when I was in Paris, it was very gloomy
and look, It's gloomy again.
When in Paris,
Bakery!~~
So we got a baguette
It was only 1 Euro.
KChoi: So good
Paris Baguette, just kidding, just kidding
KChoi: This is the real, Paris baguette
KChoi: I know it is ahha
KChoi: Try it J: Okay
KChoi: Joan trying her baguette, that we just bought Joan: Mhmmm
Mhmmmmm
KChoi: Can you rip me a piece? Joan: Okay K: Cause, I have braces
J: This is what I came for
I wanted all the bakeries, hhaah
This is so good guys.
This is going to be me everyday
walking around Paris with a baguette.
I'm going to turn into a baguette.
Always have to wear comfortable shoes because the floors look like that
Kristina, where are we in front of?
KChoi: Arc De Triomphe J: Yes~
and we can see the Eiffel Tower but I can't capture it
because, I have wide lens so we will get closer and I can't wait to show you guys.
Walking out now
here it is
KChoi: if you keep walking down here, you hit the Louvre
Oh okay
KChoi: I hope
We found a great view of the Eiffel Tower, let's turn
KChoi: Where is it? Is it washed out?
Look right there
KChoi: Yay Joan: Yay
We can see the scene, and look Eiffel Tower is hiding behind this building
K Choi is excited
I'm excited!
Yay! We made it~
After 20 minutes of walking
KChoi: So gorgeous
Alright, here's a better view of the Eiffel Tower
Yay!~
Kristina was basically saying that, everywhere you turn it just looks like a painting.
I know you just saw like 50 different angels of the Eiffel Tower
but, I can't stop staring at it and
the ground is shaking ahha
KChoi: The train J: The train
Uhm, but yeah
so that's why there are so many angels of the Eiffel Tower
in this vlog, It's beautiful
KChoi: Here's another one
and it looks skinny from this angle.
We are walking over to Notre Dame.
So many flower petals in the air.
The allergies hhaha.
It's difficult
It's a difficult time for me
KChoi: We are going to pass the Louvre
Oh ok, yay!
Maybe pick up a macaron
We don't like our macarons
it's too sweet
but, um, if you're in Paris, I feel like you have to
because, it's French K: Yeah
yeah
Check out the gold details on this bridge
Wow
and they have like a flea market down here
and Kristina was telling my that the worst allergy
reaction that she has was when in Prague and what do you now, we are going to Prague
after Paris.
but yeah, she's vlogging
I'm vlogging, we are all vlogging.
Where are we, Kristina?
KChoi: Uhm, It's called the
KChoi: I don't know how to pronounce it Joan: It's okay
KChoi: Joan's French viewers, correct her.
KChoi: Yes Joan: correct her correct us.
We are currently sitting at
two of the chairs at Jardin des Tuileries
I hope I'm saying that correctly
KChoi: Sadly Joan: yes
uhm, but if the weather is really nice, I heard
It's the perfect places to just lounge and..
just chill, we walked a lot today so we wanted to kinda rest
here and start walking again but, it's so nice
and peaceful, look at our view so pretty
this is where you sit and enjoy the beautiful view right there.
Alright, lets go to the Louvre
Hahaha
I've been in front of the Louvre museum and it's kind of a pyramid
clear pyramid right? K: It's like the top of it and you go underground.
Joan: Yes and KChoi: and then like all the buildings on side are also part of it
It's very popular because, Mona Lisa is there.
Uhm, but I heard it's like this big.
Just kidding not this big, It's smaller than you would expect.
KChoi: and it's behind glass I think so Joan: uh huh
KChoi: can't even get that close
but we might go tomorrow morning just depending oh whether it's open or not
on Easter Monday, I didn't know that was a thing but,
she brought it up so, if that happens we are just probably gonna uh..
you know, get some ice-cream, croissants tomorrow.
Check out all these Tulips
Abe's favorite flowers are Tulips
so if you're watching.
Here it is~ the Louvre museum
Look at this
We are gonna over to Notredame
it's like over there
I feel like this vlog is me being amazed how beautiful Paris is
uh, starting tomorrow I promise will be a little more like in order,
I feel like because, start our day with breakfast, go to museum
and Idk what else we planned but we've been eating a lot of good food tomorrow.
Check out the love locks they're so pretty.~
We have something similar in Namsan but, theres like ribbons hanging from the locks and stuff
but, this is original right?
This is where it all started right?
KChoi: I think so, but I don't think this is actually the exact place Joan: Yea
because, they had to take it all down, like last year i think. I remember talking about it on radio but
I think this is a new location but, maybe It's been here, but it's safer to keep all the locks here.
But yeah, love locks~
Finally, I feel like I've said Notredame so many times and we are finally going.
There it is
We are inside the Norte-Dame
and there is service going on.
That was worth waiting in line for, It was beautiful
the stain glasses, I wish I can capture how beautiful it was
but, It's impossible.
So now we are going over to Shakespeare and Company
hopefully we are going to find a book, if not we are going to eat dinner.
Here it is omg, Shakespeare and Company
No photos allowed, but it's beautiful bookstore
amazing!
Uhm we are hungry so we are going to get something to eat, oh wow
they have a cafe for Shakespeare and Company
I think they have more books in there according to the books outside,
KChoi: yeah Joan: but, we're hungry we are gonna get Falafels now.
The famous Falafel place closed today, it's usually closed on Friday and Saturday but, today is Easter Sunday
so it's closed, so we are going to come back tomorrow, probably
yes, KChoi: we are going to Shake la dine instead
because, that was recommended to me from Joanne
she sent me a powerpoint of things
to do in Paris
and I just wanted to show you guys on how much I've walked.
Eiffel Tower is like all the way over there, it's like a shadow
right? KChoi: yea
Here we are
Yay!~
It's open~
KChoi: I thought it was closed
I know, we thought it was closed cut there was white paper.
We just ordered our food, and we got our wine
and if you're curious about how many steps we walked,
KChoi: Almost 30,000
And we are also going to be walking
to see the Eiffel Tower after this so we are
probably gonna hit KChoi: are we gonna walk there
but we just need 63 more steps
We'll hit 30k today.
That's how much we walked.
That's a lot.
KChoi: Yesterday, in Paris we did 22,000.
22,000 yesterday, 30,000 today, that's a lot of walking
and guess what? I forgot my cooling patches for my legs in London
KChoi: I was really excited to try that Joan: I was excited to try it, uh..
I'm so sad
I'm so forgetful too, like I forgot my charge for my other camera, that M10.
So I'm just failing.
But, this dinner is gonna be really good.
I got the chicken rice and bread and she got the potatoes and rice.
KChoi: I'm waiting for my potatoes Joan: Yes, she is.
Looks so yummy~
We just finished eating, and everyone was so nice in there
The food was so delicious and it's packed right now so
that's how you know, it's a very popular French restaurant.
We are going to go home now
I wanted to see Eiffel Tower when it's you know
Lighting up at night
but, I am exhausted and allergies are kicking in again
and, we want rest.
KChoi: yeah, I just called our Uber so It's 2 minutes away.
I mean we'll be here tomorrow, so we can always do uh..
Eiffel Tower at night tomorrow.
So, yeah, I'm gonna go home now and probably wash up, edit, and go to bed
So, I will see you guys in tomorrow's vlog
