...to show you Paris.
Even if only in segments.
DC airpot, May 18, 2010; leaving for Paris, France.
We have arrived.
Here we are! We left DC around 7:30pm, and arrived in Paris at 8am. We didn't sleep much on the plane except for about an hour. As soon as we arrived to our Hotel and stepped off the bus I got sick; literally. It was a mixture of no sleep, flying, traveling in heavy France traffic and the salmon I ate on the plane. Needless to say it was embarrassing. I was afraid I had caught something bad, but not long after, I started to feel better. After this ordeal we put our luggage in the luggage room (we weren't able to head to our room yet), and immediately started on our walking tour of Paris. Mind you we had about an hr of sleep. ;) It was a great first day though! You'll see below where I started to crash. We found a Starbucks and Kev let me take a nap on the couch; believe me it was needed. We both were exhausted.
Heading towards the Metro; about to take a walking tour of Paris.
Metro.
Can you find the Eiffel Tower?
Notre Dame

Notre Dame up close.
Inside Notre Dame.
Thousands, no probably millions of prayers have been prayed here.
There's beauty in the confession.
No joke, someone was in confession with a priest behind glass walls where everyone could see.
Talk about humbling.

Below is a different church we visited (I can't remember the name of it).
It was smaller than Notre Dame, but still just as beautiful.
We found this Starbucks that had two levels. We sat on the top floor and rested. :)
Our hotel room.
This is only day one of Paris. I will eventually share more.
