The City of Lights- Paris part 1

I went to Paris two weeks ago and I didn't post about it?!  What kind of travel blogger am I?  Sorry for the lack of updates, there has just been so much going on!

This past week we went to Granada, Spain. And I have a full slate of weekend travels from now up until literally the week I come home!  I'm so excited for these next few weeks.  Included in my itinerary are London, Cordoba, Milan, Verona, possibly Venice, Paris (again!), Seville, and Dublin.  Yay for travel!  

Alright, so Paris.  I fell in love with the city.  Literally.  Full out in. love.  Despite warnings that parisians could be rude, we encountered only the nicest people.  In fact, one time I was running late (and somewhat lost) on the metro, and a young couple actually sprinted to my stop (not theirs!) with me, just to make sure I could find my way.  

We went to mass in Notre Dame, drank wine under a glittering Eiffel Tower (yes, it glitters/sparkles/lights up/whatever you want to call it for 5 minutes every hour at night,) ate way too many crepes, tried escargot and walked the Champs Elyees to the Louvre.  Because I took over 300 pictures, I'm just sharing a select few through the next few posts.
