I'll always have Paris


this was my first Paris experience... an old man playing the accordion on the train. I have always wanted to go to Paris and when we found out our plane had a layover in Paris we thought we would just stay there a few days. With three crazy dramatic girls I was feeling the need for a serious break, as were, they I am sure from me. Athens and Paris were amazing and although I missed Jeff a lot, and the girls a little, I wish we could have stayed a bit longer. I will have to go back again, but at least for now I can say that I will always have Paris.

I get so motion sick and claustrophobic on planes and the 4 hour wait we had to take off in Athens did not help, I am thankful for prayer, text messaging, and a nintendo ds that saw me through this traveling ordeal.

My good friend Jenn and I on our first outing and Paris. Could not have asked for a more perfect trip partner we had the best time together.

I think that I could sell this shot of the Eiffel Tower.

We missed going to the Louve Museum but it was beautiful from the outside and I will go back someday.

From the top of the Tour De Champs, (Eiffel Tower)


L'Arc De Triumph, so much better than I thought it would be.

The many spiral stairs to the top of the arc

Just beside Notre Dame

This was probably one of my favorite parts of our trip. There was a special vibe around Notre Dame and it was truly amazing to hear the bells ring when we were up in the towers.

Inside the Chapel

My favorite Rtist Vincent Van Gogh so cool to see it in real life.
