Wanderlust: Favorite Moments in Paris

Last night, I watched The Way. It's a film about El Camino de Santiago, or the Way of St. James. The beautiful footage in the film has me reminiscing about my own travels. This past summer, I was so incredibly blessed to have the opportunity to travel parts of Europe for 6 whole weeks.

Naturally, Paris was included in the trip, and the city didn't disappoint. I'm reminiscing about all the lovely experiences, with the help of some (um, several thousand...) photos.  Here are some of my favorite moments from the visit:


This amazing street performer by Sacré-Coeur



The most perfect pink roses


The Louvre at night - much more peaceful


  
Picnic in the park with Ladurée macarons




Drinking wine by the Seine (with an excellent view of Notre-Dame)




Finally, the Eiffel Tour light show, of course


Have you ever been to Paris? Currently seeking travel partners for another visit...

  2. Nice entry! I'm just wondering how Jeff managed to make the "Crémant at the Seine" picture ;)
    PS: glad you didn't get the "Paris syndrome", a psychological disorder by which especially Japanese tourist are affected.
