My conference ended on the Friday afternoon so I took the TGV to Paris to meet the husband. He had arrived earlier that day on the Eurostar (his ticket was my anniversary gift to him - I figured it counted as 'paper').

Our goal was to walk as much as possible and pretty much eat and drink our way around the city. On Saturday morning we woke up bright and early, fuelling up with coffees and croissants.

We walked through St Germain de Pres, visited the Eiffel Tower, and saw l'Arc de Triomphe.

I completely forgot to bring the original picture with me, but I think we were pretty close to recreating this picture from when my family lived in Paris.

We probably covered 8 miles on foot so we hopped on the metro to rest up a bit before dinner.

Oh! If I had my way, I would have been in Paris this weekend for our anniversary too.

I'm a long time reader, but very lazy commenter. Your photos and trips always provide me such a pick-me-up. Love it!
