Day 3 in Paris

Day 3 in Paris

Ok so today, we got kind of a late start due to me taking Tylenol pm and not waking up til 11 am lol. After we got ready, we had almond croissants at our new favorite place and walked down to the Louvre. The Louvre. Is. Incredible. I saw everything I have ever read about and I have to say, it's just so much We saw things that took our breath away and a few things that almost brought me to tears, seriously.

From the Louvre, we walked over to the Hotel des Invalides to see the war museums and the Tomb of Napolean. Now that, was cool. So the way Napolean's tomb is placed, you are either looking from below so you look up to him, our you are above and with the way the railing is placed, you are bending over like you are bowing. Even in death this guy has respect. After that we shared a nutella crepe and walked to meet our night bike tour, which met at the Eiffel tower. We rode all try through the Latin quarter to Notre Dame, had ice cream with the group at this amazing little place, and had a Seine river cruise for an hour with...free wine. My face is still red. Also, it's freezing. It feel's like a Sacramento January here.

Tomorrow will be great, we are off to Versailles then seeing the Musee D'Orsay mostly because I'm dying to see Monet's water lillies and starry night. At 7pm we have our train to Rome where we have decided to buy some wine and watch a movie. It's an overnight train so we'll arrive in Rome around 10 am. So much has happened I can't believe it's still the beginning of our trip.

Ryan and I got to thinking about Honeymoons and I think we want to go on the cheaper route: a cruise to st Thomas/Lucia and two nights at disneyworld and two at Harry potter. What can I say, we're cheesy like that! Guess that's why I'm marrying him! What's so funny is that when I was little I always somehow worked Disneyland into my Honeymoon plans, guess it's really happening!
