荷兰／The Netherlands（Part 3）

＊巴黎／Paris
晚上终于抵达巴黎。Tu一家原本来自越南，在法国的亲戚也都是越南人，所以他们对这里的越南人区非常清楚。我们一到巴黎后，就到越南人区去吃晚餐，然后再随Tu的表姐到她的家过夜，隔天他们就带我游车河。
After a few more hours on the road, we finally arrived in Paris. Tu’s family were originally from Vietnam, and so were her relatives in France. As such, the first place we headed for was the 13th Quarters, the Vietnamese district of Paris, where we had a great Vietnamese meal. We spent the night at Tu’s cousin’s place and the next day, we went on a driving tour of Paris.

到巴黎当然要去看埃菲尔铁塔啦。选择了最便宜的方法，从外面拍照就好，不花钱上塔去。
The one thing which all tourists to Paris never missed is of course, the Eiffel Tower. We chose the cheapo method of seeing the tower, i.e. taking pictures from outside instead of spending a bomb to go up the tower. 然后也到了塞纳河边的著名博物馆罗浮宫。这里原是法国的王宫，现在是收藏超过40万见艺术收藏的博物馆。
We walked around the grounds of the Louvre Museum, the world’s most visited art museum, located on the right bank of the Seine River. This place was originally the palace, but now houses more than 400 000 art pieces. 当然，还看了一堆其他的旅游景点，像是巴黎圣姆院、凯旋门、香榭丽舍大街和圣心堂（或白教堂）等。
Of course, we took in other sights too. Like Notre-Dame de Paris, Arc de Triomphe, Avenue des Champs-Elysees and Le Sacre-Coeur (The White Church) etc. 乘机会约在日本认识的法国朋友Didi出来喝茶。我们已经两年没有见面了，要不是这次Tu的父母建议来巴黎，还真不知道要等到何时才会见到Didi呢。
I took the chance to catch up with Didi, whom I met during my trip to Japan, over a cup of tea too. It’s been two years since we last met. Really thankful to Tu’s parents for suggesting this trip, or else it will be ages before I can meet up with Didi. 出来游玩已经三个月了，远行前剪了很短很短的头发，不过头发长得太快，一下子又长了。刚好Tu也想理发，于是我们两人就到越南人区一个商场内去理发。帮我剪头发的是个中国人，技术还真不赖，结果Tu的妈妈看到我的新发型后非常后悔没有和我们一起理发。本以为会很贵，怎么知道一个人才22欧元（约44新元），而且Tu又不让我付钱，所以基本上我是免费剪发。不过又忘了拍照，所以你们看不到我的新发型。
I cut my hair real short before I set off on this trip, but three months on, the hair has grown into a mess. Tu wanted a haircut too, so we decided to get our hair cut in a salon in 13th Quarters. My hairdresser was actually from China and he did a great job on my hair. It made Tu’s mom regret not joining us for the haircut. I was expecting the haircut to be really expensive, but it turned out to be only 22 Euros. On top of that, Tu insisted on paying on my behalf, so essentially, I got a free haircut. But I forgot to take pictures again, so no before-and-after pictures here.
