The very best shot of the Eiffel Tower I took. I love it! 

I can’t believe it’s been two months since I strolled the streets of Paris.

My trip to London and Paris was pretty damn epic. Although I only got to wander the streets of the City of Lights for a day, it definitely made an indelible print on my life. While I was there I made a new French friend (a fine gentleman who still calls me every, single day. Oui!), and I also (re)ignited my passion to see more of the city.

Recently, I was looking back at my pictures and realized I didn’t take nearly as many as I thought I did. Sure, I got several shots of the Eiffel Tower (I was desperate to find it, because then I felt I was IN Paris), but I didn’t take as many pictures of the sites and sounds as I would have liked. Probably because I spent most of the time just taking it in (and asking for directions), but I’ll always have my memories.

Next time….there will be more than enough pictures to go around. But for now, check out some of my favorite shots from my brief excursion to Paris.
