Merci Beaucoup 10

Everything in Paris is exactly like you think it is. It's all the positive and none of the negative. Instead of using too many words to try and explain all that Paris is, I've decided to just do a list. And include some pictures. Also, today marks the 126th anniversary of the opening of the Eiffel Tower to the public. These are cell phone pictures btw. Don't judge.

 

The first picture I took in Paris

Just kidding. It was this one from the night before. The traffic was unlike anything I've ever experienced. Insanity is all it was.

The List:

Eating dinner in a corner cafe
Eating crepes from a stand along the Seine
