Paris
July 13, 2013
Hello world! This is my second last post for my Europe trip. I am surprised that I make it till the end because I didn’t really finish blogging about my previous Korea and Taiwan trip.
Anyway, we spent about 3 days in Paris touring around this lovely city. It is our first time there so we were really visiting places which all tourists would go. The next time when we visit Paris again, we will explore lah!
Arc de Triomphe
The Luxor Obelisk and Les Invalides
We went into the Louvre to take photos only. HAHA! I was quite upset lah, because I was really excited to look at the Mona Lisa painting. But then leh, we would probably need half a day or so to do it, which we don’t have the time. So never mind lor, go in to take photos and I will be back for my Mona Lisa the next time. And I really think Louvre is a very beautiful place (just that too many people). I won’t mind coming back here for my wedding photoshoot *cough*
To make me feel better for not being able to visit Louvre, I bought myself a box of macarons from Pierre Herme! I also bought Laduree as well but I forgot to take pictures.
Why we didn’t have enough time? Because we went to Eiffel Tower!
It was really freezing coldddddd up at the tower. And very crowded! Initially I refused to go up because I am scared of heights. But one of our friends said how can I not go up Eiffel tower when I visit Paris? So bobian, everybody go up, I also have to do it. Thankfully, the boy didn’t chose to propose to me up at the Eiffel Tower. It was so crowded I think we would just get photobombed. Or he would be so cold that he couldn’t ask the golden question properly. HAHA!
So we stayed up at the Eiffel tower and waited for it to blink at 10PM! I salute myself. So cold already still must wait for it to blink! But the 5 mins of blinking was really beautiful. I wish I have taken a video to show you but my camera has no more battery.
Ok, I am done with part 1 of my Paris post. Next week, I am going to share with you my dining experience at Michelin-starred restaurant L’Arpège!
