The second night in Paris we went to have drinks on the Ponts des Arts, which is a pedestrian bridge which crosses the Seine river. The locks that feature all along the bridge are a symbol from the French film by the same name. Couples often come to the Pont des Arts with their initials engraved onto the locks, in where they lock the lock onto the bridge and throw the key into the Seine. The Pont des Arts is a popular place for tourists and locals to drink and have a small picnic (the French love their picnics) It's a pretty cool place to hang out and have a beer or two with friends. There's often buskers that also feature, which adds extra ambience to the bride. Afterwards we made our way to the 9eme arr. to a Parisian club called Generation which played 80's and 90's hits. It was pretty cool, but I was exhausted and not much of a clubber so headed of before my siblings.
