Nearing the end!!!

I can't believe it's only a few weeks until we fly back to La Crosse! The crazy European adventure must end sometime, I just didn't think it would be when I still have so much work to do! Here, at any rate, are some pictures from our trip to Paris. We spent a long weekend for our anniversary (number 2!!!) sipping wine, eating crepes, and being snubbed--and it was fantastic!

NOTE: Again, some of the pictures are cut off, just click to view the whole image!

Here's my wonderful lady on our first stroll around Paris. And what should we find but a super-awesome arch hanging out in the middle of everything!


I hope this is pretentious enough; here I am enjoying my 9 euro coffee on Ile de la Cite. It was good coffee...

Notre Dame is rather impressive, no? And this is just the famous front, it's really long too, and has a great statue of Charlemagne in front.

The inside of the cathedral is very...Victor Hugo.

Our obligatory tourist shots in front of the Eiffel Tower. We had a perfect day for this visit!

I convinced Anna that we needed to go to the very top. I think I made a good call.


A million stairs leading up the hill to Sacre Coeur, which has a great view of Paris looking south.

Our final day was much more rainy, but the Arc de Triomphe is still pretty cool, and much much bigger than I imagined!

As you can probably tell, we had a great time, and between great wine, great food (mostly baguettes), and great sights, Paris is definitely on the list of places to go back to!
