PART 2 OF IFTC PARIS SEMINAR---WHOLE DAY TOUR OF FABULOUS PARIS!

KEE@FSWMAG.COM
THE SECOND DAY OF IFTC'S STUDENTS' TRIP TO PARIS AMERICAN ACADEMY WAS SPENT TOURING THE CITY OF LIGHTS AKA CITY OF LOVE AKA CITY OF JOY!

What a joyful day we had touring the main sights of Paris from 10 am till 6 pm with Agnes from PAA acting as tour guide and Antoine the handsome driver of our coach.

Unlike some stingy, cost-cutting and unprofessional schools, PAA hired an entire luxury coach to ferry us around Paris! The coach could accommodate 40 pax and there were only 15 of us! 

Here are what we saw and did. Of course I was the photographer (except those photos when I was in them!) and the results are exceptional I must say!

 We met around 9.50 am in Val du Grace next to PAA

 Due to my brillinat photography, the bronze horse and rider looked like they were standing on roof of tour bus!






 Trocadero which offers the best views of Eiffel Tower







 Photo taken AGAINST the sun! I told Agnes we had to return in afternoon when the sun is in front og Eiffel as you can see our shadows in front of us instead of being at our back!


 Most of these blacks spoke Bahasa Melayu which shocked us out of our mind!
 These touts bargained in Malay and even used the word 'selendang' when selling shawls!
 Our purchases were transacted in Malay can you believe?
