Bonjour from Paris

We arrived safely in Paris. We took the chunnel train to Paris and arrived yesterday morning to a beautiful spring day in the City of Lights. As usual, we didn't want to waste a single second so we started running around the town hitting all of the main highlights.

Our rooms are wonderful and in a great location- down the street and take a left from the Eiffel Tower! Seriously- it's like a distant neighboor.

The food is also wonderful here, as well. We made the mistake of showing Mom where a bakery is next to the hotel, and now all she can talk about is how to get some of the pastries back to everyone at home. I think if she tried to bring some back, they wouldn't even make it to the airport because everything is so delicious!

We've spent some time at 2 of our favorite art museums: Musee de Orsay and the Louvre. There is never enough time here to see all that we want to view.

Here is just one picture of us outside the Louvre, but I promise that once we are done we will do major posts about stories and include tons of pictures and videos.






One of my favorite parts so far was being able to see the Eiffel Tower at night. The last time we were in Paris Jason and I saw it first thing in the morning, but Mom and Dad wanted to see it at

night. All I can say is that we missed something so magical and wonderful. I remember thinking that the Eiffel Tower was this huge, impressive work of art that I greatly admired, but seeing it at night just makes you think how beautiful it is and it makes you fall in love with it- and with the one you are kissing under it! This video is when we were going for a walk at night and we are within a walking distance of the tower and I forgot that the sparkling lights happened so I was so shocked when I saw this:
