Paris 2016 :)

For a few years now I have been wanting to go to Paris (the city of lights <3) so when my best friend Hannah suggested it I was over the moon. We booked our hotel, packed our bags and jumped on the Eurostar 🙂 When we arrived at Gare du Nord which is the biggest train station in Paris we got the metro to the Avenue Des Champs Elysees and then found our hotel which was 2 minutes from the Arc de Triomphe.

After going up the Arc De Triomphe and seeing the amazing view we went shopping along the Champs Elysees which was AWESOME 🙂 I found Sephora so I had to have a shop around and see what they had 🙂

We then went back to the hotel to check in and unpack before going down to the Eiffel Tower where we took some pictures and grabbed some dinner.

After the Eiffel Tower we went back to the hotel to play the Bean Boozled challenge which was hilarious!!

The next day we took the Batobus down the Seine and went to the Musee d’orsay which had some amazing Monet’s! We then went to the Louvre which has the Mona Lisa and finally to Notre dame which has the most gorgeous Stain Glass Windows 🙂 For dinner we went to a traditional French restaurant and had fish and chips :p We then walked down to see the Eiffel Tower at sunset to see it lit up.

The next day we took a bus tour around Paris for Bastille day and saw some of the Military Parade. We saw a #parisweloveyou sign that we took some pictures with and also found a Lock bridge 🙂

We went to dinner in a Thai restaurant where I tried Frog Legs for the first time- the were really chewey!!! We then walked down to see the fireworks by the Eiffel Tower for Bastille Day which were beautiful.

And then on our last day we packed up our room and headed to Sacre-Coeur and the Hard Rock Cafe before getting the train back home.

Overall my experience of Paris was absolutely FANTASTIC!! Even though it was a series of early mornings and long days of walking I was laughing and smiling the whole time, saw some amazing Architecture and got to spend time with my Best Friend in the whole world 🙂
