I love you in French.
I Love You Wall
side of a random building in Montmartre...just kind of like it :)
How perfectly framed is this?

I Love You Wall
It only took me 3 years, but I finally got up here!
me and Laura in front of the Moulin Rouge
I think I'm in love with the work of Gustave Moreau. It's hard to see in pictures, but his paintings are amazing, and they have sooooooooooooo much detail and great color.
The stage of the Opera Garnier. The Opera Garnier has the biggest stage in the world.
ceiling of Opera Garnier
the famous chandelier...not really but it is the current chandelier in the Opera.
Michelle outside the Opera Garnier.
Laura in front of the Opera Garnier.
l'Opera Garnier...I'm in love with this building.
Kristen on our boatride at Chambord.
Nina breakin it down on our boatride at Chambord.
The trophy room of the "man's chateau."
He was just too cute...I kept passing this kid at Chambord, and he just didn't seem to
like wearing his shirt. :)
double helix staircase in Chambord...one person can go up and another can come down, and they will never meet.
me and Nina in front of Chambord
Chambord...the "man's chateau"
me and Michelle at the wine tasting in the Loire Valley
Salut!
wine in storage at the winery
da Vinci's garden
a not so great shot of Clos Luce, da Vinci's chateau in Amboise.
Chenonceau
Chenonceau back in the day.
the Black Room of Louise de Lorraine in Chenonceau
the Great Hall of Catherine de Medici in Chenonceau
Eiffel Tower...duh...
me and Nina on our Bateaux Mouches ride
so I'm not sure if the flame was actually put here for this reason, but this is the top of the bridge/tunnel where Princess Diana crashed and was killed.
Eiffel Tower from the Seine
my duck friends in the Jardin du Luxembourg
inverted pyramid at the Louvre...hello da Vinci Code fans...
the Mona Lisa/la Jaconde...not really too impressive, but I feel like I have to include it in my Louvre visit just because...
Winged Victory
Louvre
close up of a painting of Napoleon crowing himself emperor
and the crown Napoleon crowned himself with
haha...I just liked this creeper...=)
la Pyramid
Louvre, again
oldest part of the building that is the Louvre today (at least the part still standing
above ground)...this was part of the original royal chateau back in the day
Louvre
inside l'eglise de St. Paul
St. Paul was built by Louis XIV, the Sun King; this is a pretty cool sun disk on the
front of the church.
front of l'eglise de St. Paul
I don't remember what this building is or where exactly it's located, but it had a really nice courtyard, good architecture and what not, and Mozart lived in the building way back when, so that's just kinda cool.
