Hung out with a Fungi

I went exploring today at Goldstream with my friend and it was great. 





                                  Why did the Fungi leave the party? There wasn't mushroom. 








Did you hear the joke about the fungus? I could tell it to you, but it might need time to grow on you. 



















Which vegetable goes best with jacket potatoes? Button Mushrooms 








I stole all of these jokes from the internet.

Sometimes I am really tough on my home province but I will always appreciate the beautiful skies!

La Ville-Lumèire

I recently took a three day trip to Paris by myself. It went smoothly but of course it was a bit strange traveling alone. This was my first time being a solo traveler. I have been to Paris before in 2011 and I wasn't really a fan but this time was different because I took the time to really appreciate what I was doing. Paris is a big city but without much of the hustle and bustle that one would experience in a place like London. It is very relaxed for such a big place.

My first day in Paris I visited Versailles which I got into for free because I am a UK citizen. It was amazing to realize people actually lived in this luxury especially when some couldn't afford to eat. There was an option to take a train around the gardens which I didn't end up doing and I kind of regret that but I feel like I will be back one day and will be able to seize the opportunity. Then I went to Montmartre which I found by memory which isn't saying much but I am proud of myself none the less. I visited the Salvador Dali museum which was amazing. I then went to Sacré- Coeur to see Paris from it's tallest point. It is especially nice at night when the whole city is light up. I then went back to my hostel, Peace&Love, to have some beers with my temporary room mates. Not sure if I would stay in this hostel again. I was nice and small and clean but I left with some bites on my back which kind of freaked me out.

The next day I went on a bike tour with Fat Tire Bike tours which was super fun and I recommend it. It is a great way to see Paris. The tour guide was super informative which is what I look for in a tour guide haha. He was also super funny and used to live in Liverpool so we had fun trying to imitate the Scouse accent. After the bike tour I went shopping and out for supper with a girl I had met from Michigan. I wanted to try frog legs but changed my mind last second. Next time, France, next time.
