Hi, guys. Instead of my usual dinner post, I’ve decided to take you on a trip down memory lane. Plus, I am eating oatmeal with wheat berries for dinner (just like breakfast), which isn’t really that exciting. You aren’t missing much, and I figured you would like to see old pics from Paris much more!
Paris
Mal and I both graduated from our Masters programs in the same year, so to celebrate, we took a vacation to Paris, France. It was seriously a trip of a lifetime!!
I’m one of those go-go-go people when I am on vacation. I’d prefer to see the sights than simply relax, so we did every touristy thing imaginable while we were there– the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame Cathedral, Luxembourg Gardens, the Louve, Musée d’Orsay, the Latin Quarter, Arc de Triomphe and the Champs-Elysées, Sacre Coeur and Montmartre, a boat tour of the Seine… you get the idea. For some reason, the jet-lag didn’t affect me much, but poor Mal… I dragged him all over Paris!
Here are some highlights from our Paris trip…

Those are great pics! Looks like you had a blast. My husband and I are celebrating our 10 yr anniversary this year and we really want to go to Greece. I love to travel!
The trip looks so great! I can’t wait until my boyfriend and I can travel to another country. I love touring the town!
What a great idea! And you got to do it with your best friend
I loooved Paris when I was there for 3 short days w/ the family. We went to all the morbid places – the catacombs were the best place we visited! (ok ok the effiel tower was pretty neat) and we went to the famous cemetary where Jim Morrison (sp? from The Doors) is buried – AMAZING!
I absolutely LOVE Paris. I went there back in high school and was lucky enough to travel there for work a couple months ago and stay an extra day before coming home. I got the chance to walk ALL OVER the beautiful city by myself and had such a great time.
Looks like an amazing trip!! I dream of going to Paris, but alas, the hubby is terrified of planes.
Going to Paris is the best celebration for graduating! That’s awesome. I love your photos!
lovely
Your pics of Paris are beautiful! I went there 2 years ago with my family and words cannot even describe it! I was the same way- I wanted to see everything! It was so worth it too! Who wants to relax on vacation?
Fabulous photos! I’m so jealous.
LOVE this post! It makes me miss Europe!!
Such great photos. The trip sounds wonderful!
Your pics are beautiful! I love Paris!
Your pictures are great. I’m planning a trip to Paris (and Rome) later this year and I wish I was there right now.
Love the Paris highlights! What fabulous pics!
I would love to visit Paris one day. Thanks for sharing the pics.
ahhhh i love paris!! what a great reward for both of you, thanks for the beautiful pictures (you guys are so cute!).
Those pictures are great – it looks like you guys had so much fun!
I’ve never been to Paris, but it is on my list!
Love the pictures! I’m definitely the go-go-go type on vacations too! I just don’t want to miss a thing.
I went to London and Paris with my husband (then boyfriend) 3 weeks after we started dating. I’ve been to both places a bunch of times and offered him to join me and he did. It was his first trip outside of the US, so it’s still a super special trip for both of us! Paris is so beautiful… I want to go back!!
that’s so awesome!! I think that is the perfect way to celebrate. James and I want to try to plan a cool trip when I graduate from law school…these pictures make me want to do that even more!
Awesome pics, thanks for sharing!!!

I’m the same way on trips- go, go, go. I agree with the poster above- why relax when you can see so much!
Great pictures! I loved Paris when I went a few years ago! Fun memories!
