My first train ride in Paris

Before our Paris trip we went shopping

The main goal was to shop for a new dress but we haven't seen a dress according to my liking. The husband kept on sending photos to mother-in-law how I looked like in a dress we found in the shop. We ended up not buying at all. Husband said MIL and I would go shopping in Paris.

So I asked my husband, “will you drive us to the shopping center?”

Him: No, you will take the metro.

Me: Oh, okay. I am excited to take the metro!

Lol, I was more excited to take the public transportation especially on taking the train in Paris more than shopping in Paris itself. Hahaha!

I've been to a few countries which taking a metro ride is a very convenient transportation. I've been to Kuala Lumpur, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Bangkok, Singapore, and Taipei. These are the capital cities of each country with a convenient train ride. With my experience, there is AC.

But with the Paris train ride, just so happened it was about 34 degrees Celsius, summer weather. And our train had no AC. Not sure if it was broken or it was intentionally turned off because of the hot temperature outside. It is not very good for the health when you were hot outside and get inside with a cold temperature.

As a first timer on taking the train in Paris, I was somewhat confused on which where to go or which platform to take since I am not familiar with the destinations around Paris.

The MIL and I went to a shopping mall. We went to Zara. I am not a fan of shopping clothes because I am not a fashionable person. I am not very good in choosing clothes.

There was a time i've been thinking I want to buy a boba milk tea because I missed drinking it. But the store I saw had so many people in it.

The shopping mall is huge. I wasn't able to take photos inside. Just like a regular shopping mall to me. Of course, I miss window shopping, just looking around.

Before 6 PM, we went home but the sun was up. It was very hot and the same train going back home without AC. When we arrived to our station, we walked towards home.

I went to the bath tub right away and enjoy my time alone. It was good and refreshing. I ate ice cream after.

I took care of the kids and the family prepared for our dinner.

Real life Disney house

Walking home, we saw this real life Disney house. Like the one you see in some Disney movies like in Snow White, Beauty and the Beast or Cinderella. It is just around the neighborhood.

P. S. Life has been so busy lately so I am not able to spend time here in Read Cash.
