Day Nineteen: The City of Love

5/17/2014

Ah this City is fantastic! I loved exploring the city today! I hit a lot of touristy sites today, but when in Paris you've got to go! We started the day off at the Notre Dame. I really can't believe that I am here! It is so exciting! We wandered along the Sine river today. Ate crepes. All things that are a must in Paris. I was really excited to find a cute lock and visit the Pont de Arts. That is a beacon call to all sappy romantics to visit it and lock away your love forever. Everyone is looking for everlasting love. Of course I found a cute lock to lock to the bridge. It was a lot of fun, even if I'm not in love yet. One day I'll return with that special someone and throw the other key into the River. It will be romantic! :P

Best Crepe ever!

My Lock

Can you spot mine?



Throwing the key

The Orsay was fun to visit. I got to see more Van Gogh pieces, which I love! I just love looking at the art. It is amazing how talented some people are!
Of course if you are in Paris you have to see the Eiffel tower! So we walked over to it. It was an adventure trying to find it! For a building so tall it is pretty hard to see when walking along the streets of Paris. Luckily we found it. 




I also got to see the arc de Triomphe! I have admired this monument forever! I was so excited to see it in person, it was as glorious as I imagined!
