Paris.Je t'aime

Paris has it's long list of historic times, the result for today's strong standing structures and world known architecture. The Eiffel Tower, The Northe Dame and The Arc de Triomphe. Still having a long list, I did not visit it all.

We followed a free tour which met at St. Michel at 1100hrs. It was a 3 hour tour which brought us to various places including Northe Dame, The Louvre and the Palais Royal. We didn't get to go in any of the buildings cos there was no enough time. In the middle of the tour after the Palais Royal, we did not continue our tour instead we went to have lunch and got lost in Paris. Much of getting lost in Paris is being in a makeup store choosing colors and entering cute little confectionery shops.

a pretty sight no?
there goes pollution
see those different intoxicated expressions molded on the bridge
care being drunk in a kings party? you'll get one too
the building of the immortal : people who works only on Thursday to keep the French language alive
of everlasting love, lovers lock padlocks on this bridge
but than again, after a few months, the authority cut them out an throw them away
too modern for those times, I'm sure you would recognize this structure
The Louvre

Than it started to rain and Starbucks will always be our live saver. Our feet could not take us any longer and we we physically drained. So we went back to have another occasion for the night.

We headed off to see the Arc de Triomphe and the Eiffel Tower the next day after our Disney experience. All else seems boring after our Disney experience. With our tired feet, we pushed ourselves to meet Mr Eiffel because the next day we were already leaving Paris. Going to Paris without stepping on the Eiffel ground is not Paris.
