Summer living…
Views from the ferris wheel.
Worth it!
First meal! We learned that most places in France close after lunch and don’t open for dinner until 7pm.
Hey, there’s bread behind me!
Bon appetit
How I feel about our current political state.
Straight line to the Egyptian Obelisk
Cruiser bikes are so different compared to the road bikes I typically ride…
Rainbow road
Because there weren’t elevators back in the day, we learned that actually, the higher the floor the less wealthy you were. Also, Go Mexico!
Egyptian Obelisk. Originally located in Luxor, this is the oldest monument in Paris dating back over 3,000 years. The white structure next to it is temporary, as the city was preparing for Bastille Day Celebrations.
The sky really was that blue…
Always have to find the Kodak sign!
The Pont Alexandre III bridge. It was built for the 1900 World Fair and to celebrate a French-Russian alliance. An engineering feat of the day, the bridge is one giant arch, and lacks any pillars below that would disrupt the river traffic of the Seine.
Notre Dame
Louis 14th (Sun King), the maniac behind this place.
For all the glory of France!
Escape…
Hall of mirrors. Ok, this dude had a problem…
Waiting to get our golf cart.

Fountain of Apollo
Don’t get lost in the maze…

Wall of Nespresso pods.
A personal concierge for all your podspresso needs.
George was there too! (This place really amused me.)
Can’t leave Paris without having steak frites (with a mysterious green sauce).
Au revoir Champs-Elysées, the mountains await.
