PARIS
28 Dec 2016 - 1 Jan 2017
Trip started on 28 Dec 2016 from Singapore - Paris.
The SIA flight we took was SQ336, 12.10am and it was quite "empty". All the passengers were allowed to "sleep" the whole stretch of the seats. ^^
Data plan
Important to note is that if you are from Singapore and subscribed to M1, you can sign up for data passport for only $50 (+$2 activation fee). Cheapest mode of data roaming than wifi Egg(from what I have compared across)! And it runs across 28 countries in Europe!

Upon reaching the airport at 7am (the same day due to time lag) we went to the airport counter to get the Museum pass and Disneyland pass. The 2 days museum pass was €48 . The disneyland for 2 parks ticket was €94.00.

Throughout the whole trip Amandine (our host) stays with us. She knows English and she arrive us at the early morning.

This does not required any museum pass, so I planned this on the first day, it is a must go in my opinion, very pretty inside out. If you are planning for a budget trip (did not even get museum pass), you must go this one.
Happy us
Apparently there are some illegal sellers selling things on the floor and they ran away when they saw police coming to them. But after the police left, they put the things back on the floor. Most of the items they selling are counterfeit handbags and souvenirs like keychains etc. And all of them are blacks (Africans), and fluent in English..
