Paris!

So, day two of our European Vacation started with a very long plane ride to Paris, France! Doesn't Chad look excited!?! When we landed in Paris, we took the train to the center of town. I had the bright idea of just walking through the city to find our hotel. Remember, we were carrying backpacks!
Um, yea, it was A LOT farther than I though it would be! We had to stop at a cafe for a refreshment! Guess who had the beer, and who had the coffee?




The transportation over there is CRAZY! We loved this one...



You have to love this building! So much of my life has been spent at Rolex-sponsored events, that I had to have a picture!

How artistic of me! This was such a surreal, cool place.

This is the mall area right outside the Louvre. Never got inside, as it was closed on Tuesdays. (Of course, the day we were there!)

Hail, Ceasar!

This is NOT the one in Vegas! It's the REAL ONE!
So we had to climb to the top!

Yes, it was really cool. It would have been more romantic if it didn't have all of those damn tourists everywhere!

After all of that walking and smooching, we needed food and drink! Again, guess who had the beer, and guess who had the wine...
We took a guided boat ride on the Seine river at midnight. I loved it! Chad fell asleep.

At midnight, it started sparkling!

Ah, the Notre Dame Cathedral
Paris was amazing. Up next, ROME!!!
