L'Arc De Triomphe Here we are at L'Arc De Triomphe. It was so amazing to see this monument in person because it is one of the things that you identify with France. The walk that we took from here along the Champs Elysees was awesome. We passed by all these Parisian cafes and the high end boutiques like Louis Vuitton, Cartier and so many more! |
|
For the 10 days that we were there we literally walked the entire day and were both so exhausted at the end that we just fell right to sleep.
Here is a list of eveything we walked and saw while we were there:

Here is a picture of the Moulin Rouge. Our studio apartment was just behind this historic building and we loved taking walks at night and seeing it all lit up! |
|
Here we are sitting at the 2 Moulins Cafe in Montmatre. This cafe was just up the street from our apartment and is famous for being in the French foreign film "Amelie" that came out a few years ago. |

Here are some pictures - I hope you enjoy them - we had a great time talking them!

By the way, Maris is bilingual in French, but I needed some help, and I used Rocket French to get my French up to speed before I went. It really came in handy. We've already planned our next trip back, and will be staying for about 2 months next time.
I can tell you one thing for sure: our life would not be a rich and full had we not had the opportunity to take a long Parisian vacation to the City of Love. We can't wait to go back!
