A Refreshing Few Days in Paris

Posted on July 23, 2022July 23, 2022 by Julie

When friends of ours said they’d be in Paris for a few days, we knew we wanted to make a trip to meet up with them. And we are glad we did. The weather was refreshingly cooler than what we’d been experiencing in Barcelona so it was a nice change for spending a few days…

Last Night in Paris

Posted on May 21, 2018July 21, 2019 by Julie

Once we moved on from the luggage situation, or lack of luggage situation, we took a taxi to our hotel in the 2nd arrondissement for our last night in Paris. The hotel had an old-time feel and our room looked like it was out of Versailles. Our room also had a kick ass looking bar…

To start our third day in Paris, Nik and I headed out to visit the Palace of Versailles for a 10am tour. Buying the “skip the line” tickets for the tour was a great decision because the lines outside the palace were ridiculously long. The palace is sprawling and looks well maintained from the exterior….

Second Day in Paris, France

Posted on May 9, 2018July 21, 2019 by Julie

Our second day in Paris ended up being fun, but it was supposed to be a day spent in Normandy. We more or less cut out Prague from the original idea of this trip and decided to stay three nights in each city, which in turn would allow us to do a full day trip to…
