Paris in Pictures...

Well, I have managed to pack up some things, but I still have a long way to go... but hey, why not reward myself with a little avoidance? I was looking, and I don't have any pictures from Nice... I think that i was traumatized by the scary waiter there... so we are moving on to Paris... which is another place i could definitely live... at least for a little while.

Another HUGE castle... this trip has really confirmed that I suite a castle!

I really enjoyed the Louvre, but I really liked the Muse d'Orsay as well.. I'm an impressionist kind of girl.

I actually like the glass pyramid.. it is so very distinct!

It really wouldn't be Paris without a few landmarks... L'arch de triumph... beautiful!

We went back at night to get it lit up. We were followed off the metro by some scary guy that you can't see. He was trying desperately to get our attention by jumping in front of my camera.


Sacre Coeur... another big beautiful church...

Notre Dame ...Another beautiful church... there were so many.. elaborate churches and castles, i really enjoyed them!
AND OF COURSE......

The Eiffel Tower... It sparkles for 10 minutes every hour.. (maybe only at night) but regardless it was pretty. Funny, when the french man at the hotel said tour d'eiffel, we had no idea what he was talking about... ugh.. only the most memorable monument in Paris.. which incidentally was almost taken down... thankfully the french people reconsidered...otherwise i wouldn't have this great picture!

I think that is a pretty good overview.. did I mention I loved France?

I hate you. Not really. I love you. But I kinda hate you, too. And I showed Pam these pictures, and she hates you a little, too. But not really.

Steph, I hate to tell you, but you could have taken a picture of the tower at King's Island.
