Paris

I miss this beautiful city so much and am really sad that I could not visit for longer than 3 days (in early 2012). I don't know when we'll ever meet again but I hope we will xx

L'Arc de Triomphe


My very first glimpse of this magnificent structure at Trocadéro
Hôtel National des Invalides
Pont Alexandre III - Never have I seen a more spectacular bridge
Too impatient to stand in line to go up the Eiffel Tower so went to Tour Montparnasse instead - for a
bird's eye view of Paris WITH the Eiffel tower in it!
I was absolutely freezing but the wait to watch the sunset was well worth it
Carousels don't have anywhere near the same charm here in Sydney as in Paris


The magnificent fountain at Place de la Concorde
I love all the street food in Paris - crêpes, hot dogs on baguettes and washed down with "vin chaude" (hot wine)
Jardin des Tuileries - I guess I could appreciate this place more if it had been a warmer day and not the
frosty 4 degrees celcius it was this January day!
