PARIS - Bon Jour!!

Temple Men's Basketball had a long, but fulfilling first day in Europe. The Owls took off from Philadelphia at 9:30 pm (Philly time) Wednesday on a direct flight to Paris, landing in the world's most-visited city at 10:00 am (Paris time) Thursday.

The Owls visited the Avenue des Champs-Élysées, taking in the sights of one of the world's most famous streets. The team stopped to take a group photo at the Arc de Triomphe, where the Tour de France finishes.

Later the Owls took a guided tour of Paris on their bus, seeing the many attractions of the beautiful city.

The long day ended with a cruise on the Seine River, where the Owls saw the Eiffel Tower lit up at night.

Tomorrow Temple will tour Paris in the morning before taking on Evreaux at 9:30 a.m. (Philly time). To listen to the game via a free audio stream, click here.
