The Love Shack: More Pictures from Paris

Here are a few highlights from Paris.

I just don't have enough time to go into more detail.

These are not in any order,

just wonderful moments from an amazing vacation.

Enjoy.

There are carousels everywhere in Paris.
This one is right next to the Eiffel Tower.
Pic taken from the River Seine tour boat.

Walking along the River Seine in the rain. :)

A view of The Louvre from behind one the the clocks in the Orsay Museum.

One clear & sunny day after the rain came.
View of Paris rooftops from our hotel room window.

The Louvre ~ Amazing!

Brit looking like a lovely French girl on the streets of Paris.

Sacre Coeur ~ A basilica at the top of the hill near our hotel.

Sitting in a small park behind Sacre Coeur
with my very good friend Chris.

Our first view of the Eiffel Tower from the top of the hill.

Arc De Triomphe is circled by the biggest round-a-bout I could ever imagine!
Check out the cobblestone roads. Imagine the time it took
to lay all of those cobblestones on every road in this huge city!

Intrigued by this building.

Our first amazing croissant as we walked up the the Eiffel Tower.
There is no equal here at home.

WOW!

Climbing over 700 stairs....

Amazing views of the city all around.

We were just up there. Now lunch and onto more amazing sites!

Beautifully gilded bridge.
I can't remember what the historical significance is, but it was big.

Orsay clock.

Statues at The Louvre

"We are in Paris!!"

Brit is just chillin' at The Louvre.

The is a smaller arch between The Louvre and the Tuileries
(which are the gardens at The Louvre.)

The Obelisk as seen through a gate
leading from the Tuileries to the Place De La Concorde.

"Masquerade!!! Paper Faces on Parade....."
These are the beautiful stairs at the Paris Opera House,
as featured in The Phantom of the Opera.

"We are told ladies and gentlemen,
that this is the very chandelier which figures in the famous disaster......
.....a little illumination...."

Enjoying our delicious French dinner
with live music in a cozy cafe in Saint-Germain-des-Pres.

Delectable Creme Brûlée for dessert!
Again, there is no match here at home.

Sacre Coeur at night.

This was my favorite art piece in The Louvre.

Venus De Milo

The square at The Louvre as seen from one of the windows.

The Eiffel Tower as seen from the River Seine tour boat at night.
The tower is lit up like this all night and
every hour on the hour for ten minutes is sparkles
with twinkle lights for 10 minutes.
