Spring Break France: Paris & Loire Valley

Emily and I arrived in Paris late on the night of April 14, and after an eventful taxi ride that included great views of the Eiffel Tower and Notre Dame, we made it to Amandine's apartment, our home for the next five days. We were meeting her mom, my mom, and a friend Mrs. Rutter to spend a few days in Paris and the Loire Valley. Here are some highlights from our trip...


Dinner Cruise on the Seine: we saw the Notre Dame, Eiffel Tower, Statue of Liberty, and other famous sites all lit up

Notre Dame: so, so impressive and breathtaking

The Lourve: I did not go inside until later in the week, but walking around the outside and the nearby Tuileries was beautiful 

The Loire Valley Castles: we went on a drive through the region and saw three of the hundreds 

Amboise 

Château of Chenonceau 

Château of Chambord

Greek Restaurant: breaking dishes and dancing on tables in the Latin district 

Flowers: this was the perfect time to visit, everything was in bloom. I have many pictures like the following

It was great to spend time with so many great ladies! After they had to say goodbye, I met up with my friends from Copenhagen to continue the adventure...
