Needed that second day...

...to recover. Can't imagine what it would have been like to have to get up for my internship today. Boy. Does this mean that I have done all the studying I need to do? Of course not. But I've done some of it. And I think it's the effort that counts frankly.

To the left we have Tim and Dave and a broken plastic cup starring in this pic. I feel it kind of captures the day of trying to be classy with our champagne tours, but being way too giggly and college-like to ever come close to "appropriate" champagne-tasting behavior.

The following night's festivities were truly epic. So epic in fact, that I'm gonna need at least another day to put up those pics. For the first time since I bought my camera and memory card last September, I ran out of space on my camera last night after a crazy weekend. Many props go to Mr. David Koslow for bringing some fresh attitude to the crew and being such a good sport in Montmartre.

The weather is back to sucking again. Couldn't get above 55 here over the weekend. Yet even the constant rain couldn't stop us from getting our pho for yesterday's lunch. Mmmm. Weather.com assures me better times ahead.

I know mid-terms and exposes are gonna come quickly and smack me in the butt. But oh well. they can be done another day!

Notre Dame de Paris' totally goth cousin that paints its nails black and listens to Marilyn Manson.

We had fun hypothesizing the names of the bigger bottles. A Nebekanezer (sp?(15 liters))of Clicqout goes for around 860 euro.

Clicquot has the marketing prowess of Louis V behind their tour. Notice how pretty.

Koslow is obviously a HUGE fan of the caves we got to visit.

These people are just way too excited for the tour video to start. Something like a rushing crescendo at the beginning of the concerto.

In front of the Veuve-Clicquot house. See how we dressed a tiny bit nicer than usual for the champagne tours. I'm sure they really noticed.

Brendan takes to the slow pace of Reims and doesn't rush across intersections.

We all try to get some valuable shut eye on the way to Reims. Tim literally gets only one shut eye when he sleeps. Wierdo.
