So in Paris we technically had one full day to go around Paris, and we tried to see as many things as we possibly could. The Metro is a huge help with seeing things in Paris, and it saves so much on walking. I am glad for that because I didn't bring the best walking shoes (flip flops)
These first pictures we got off the Trocadero stop and walked small distance to get these shots.
We then got back onto the Metro and stopped by the Sacre Cour, and took a nice steep climb up some many many steps to get here. Near the Sacre Cour there are many shops and artist that sell many things. This is a great place to buy stuff to take home, many nick nacks!
We then asked a local where the Moulin Rouge was, because we saw that it was kinda close to where we were and he helped us find it. We love the Moulin Rouge because it is one of our ALL TIME FAVORITE movies. We have seen it dozens of times. And the other pictures are of Dustin and I at one of the Metro stops. It was really cool, like a giant cross word puzzle.
After Moulin Rouge we went to Montparnasse to a tower that they have to look over the whole city. You can get a 360 unobstructed view of the whole of Paris, needless to say, Dustin LOVED it! Then we went over to the Notre Dame. It is so beautiful, and amazing!
The Next pictures are of the Musse du Louvre, which is a museum and is surrounded by Cour Napoleon, which is a really large building. We walked some ways up to the Arc de Triomphe to see all of the traffic that goes on there, and we walked through the Jardin des Tuileries, which is a beautiful park that has many sculptures and art.
And the rest is of the Eiffel Tower. As we were walking up the park we saw a little stand that sold Drinks, Cotton Candy, and Crepes. (We went back and bought another crepe after we ate the first it was so delicious!!!) The last shots that we took were in Montparnasse where we stayed the rest of the night for quite a few hours waiting for the night shots.
