Parlez vous francais?

Well, neither do we but that's not stopping us from flying to France to celebrate our 3rd wedding anniversary this year!  (Gosh, where does the time go?!)

We're still planning our itinerary, but we'll begin the trip by spending several days eating croissants, sipping wine, visiting cafes, and strolling the romantic streets of Paris while taking in sites like the Louvre and Eiffel Tower (not necessarily in that order) before venturing to Provence and the South of France.

I've been wanting to visit Paris for some time now, so I'm incredibly happy that the time has finally come!  Shep's been to Paris, but many years ago, and, like me, has never been to the French countryside so that will be a new adventure for both of us to share!  Although we're both a tad behind in terms of research to be done and planning left to do before we take off, it's something very exciting to look forward to!  We've both been working super long hours over the past couple months and have spent what little free time we've had unpacking boxes and trying to get our apartment in order, so this will definitely be a nice break and a much-anticipated treat.

  1. Paris is fabulous- you will have a wonderful time and a much deserved vacation! Recomend the Musee D'orsay (former train station) and going to 2nd landing of Eiffle Tower and drinking lots of wine! Ro

    1. We did get to the D'orsay which was very neat! Lots of wine, chocolate croissants & crepes were had for sure!

  2. I LOVED PROVENCE!! The best part is that the wine doesn't give you a hangover- ever- because there are no sulfites (sp?) in it. So drink up!!

    I don't recommend vomitting in the Seine River, though. I know what you're thinking- hangover! But really, it was a REALLY nasty stomach bug. And to think, I STILL loved France! :)
