Our Paris Winter Trip – Part 1

Oh the great memories of our Paris winter trip! About a year and a half ago, Joe and I spent the New Year in the beautiful "City of Light." There's no doubt that Paris is one of my most favorite city in Europe! In the last 2 years, we have visited this city 3 times! That's a 10 hour flight from LAX, mind you! Anyway, here's a recap of our winter trip. Our Paris Winter Trip (Dec. 2016 - Jan. 2017) Day 1 - Winter Concert in Sainte-Chapelle The setting is not just beautiful but it is also home ... View the Post

The Eiffel Tower of Paris

No trip to Paris is complete without a visit to and a few photos of the Eiffel Tower. This iconic structure was originally intended as a temporary exhibit until its value as a radiotelegraph station was recognized. I can't picture Paris without the Eiffel Tower! So glad plans for its demolition were never carried out! Passez une bonne journée! Have a great day! ♥ Emms ... View the Post

Versailles Palace and Gardens

The Royal Chapel The Hall of Mirrors Hall of Battles We went to Versailles and explored Louis XIV's palace and gardens. So much history! This place was once "the center of political power in France from 1682 to 1789." And it's still as grand as I remember it. The last time I visited was about a decade ago with my sister. Joe and I enjoyed our visit, especially the gardens, and were already thinking of coming back the next time ... View the Post

Arc de Triomphe

We made sure we had time to climb the Arc de Triomphe before the end of our trip. It helped that our hotel is only a few steps from the Arc ;) This famous monument had some pretty awesome views of Paris from the top! Have an amazing day! ♥ Emms ... View the Post

Musee’ du Orsay

We planned to visit the Musee' du Orsay after our Impressionist Art Walking Tour but had so much fun in Monmartre we ran out of time. This museum was a 'must see' for our Paris trip. We had a busy schedule but managed to visit later that week. So glad we did! The Musee' du Orsay, boasts "the world's largest collection of Impressionist and post-Impressionist art!" Indeed, we were very impressed ;) by the large number of famous and important Impressionist art we saw and admired. No photos ... View the Post
