Beautiful Paris..

Today we said our goodbyes to Rome and flew to Paris, France. We were expecting much from the city, because we had heard conflicting views, like the city is dirty or the French are rude. So far we have really enjoyed the city and there are so many beautiful sights! We mainly walked around to Notre Dame (closest to our hotel), then to the Louvre Museum, and finally the Eiffel Tower. The Eiffel Tower looked close on the map so we figured why not walk! Stupid idea. I think it took about 45 minutes to walk there. We just got back to our room and we are exhausted! So for tonight, we are just going to post some of our favorites from the Colosseum and from various sights today - hope you enjoy!! Let us know your favorites!

  1. Bonjour!! Glad you arrived safely in Paris especially after a bumpy ride...poor Ry. It was sweet of you to call even though it was so late on your end. Hoping to skype via the computer this weekend so we can "see" you too. Loving all the pics here and on FB. Too hard to pick a favorite with all the beautiful, historical, architectural sites you have visited but I'd have to say the Colosseum was at the top. It looked really cool at night with the lighting. Looking forward to seeing more of Paris and hearing about the food, fashion, people and sites. Hard to believe you only have a little over a week left of your trip. It has gone by so fast!

    Love, Mère

  2. Again these pictures are amazing! It'd be great to see historical sites like the Louvre from the da vinci code! It looks stunning too bad there was so many people there so it wasn't as enjoyable :-/ but at least you got to see it for yourself! And the colosseum so amazing!I'm highly jealous minus the fact you didn't hear or see anything spooky from it being considered one of the top haunted sites lol
