Paris

I don’t even know where to begin.

The trip was amazing.

Our hotel was on the Champs-Elysees. Shopping bliss.

The French have mastered pastries: beignets, waffles, croissants.

My pictures don’t do the beauty of the architecture, culture or city justice. At all.

It rained a lot.

We laughed even more.

I learned 'un peu' French.

My love for {good} cheese was rekindled.

I could definitely live there.

So fun! The pics look great. Brings me back! I did a 3 week trip to France with my French class when I was a senior in high school. So much to see! Glad you had a good time. I'd love to go back someday.

Oh Whit, I am so jealous! How beautiful and fun. Madame Falsone (Bonneville) made that place seem so amazing! Glad you had a great time!

Oh, my heart! Jim and I only spent two days in Paris and it was amazing. We would really love to have to opportunity to live ANYWHERE in Europe for a couple of years so we could travel to our hearts' desires...

I miss Paris! I thought of you this week - if you had been there when the volcano erupted...you could have had maybe an extra week in Paris! For you that would have been great - I'm sure Joel & Carson would have gone nuts!

Again...love the pictures, they bring back wonderful memories of that amazing city!
