PARIS!!!

Sorry I haven't posted about this sooner but I just havent had the time lately. Anyway...Paris was AMAZING!!!! I took over 500 pics but don't worry I am not posting that many. It was very cold for the most part, mostly because of the wind chill. We spent 4 days in the Disney Parks and the other days exploring the sights such as the Eiffel Tower, The Louvre, Notre Dame, Versailles, and Saint Chapel, and many, many more. You will notice in a lot of the pictures it looks like we are wearing the same thing everyday, but that's because it was so cold and we always had to keep our coats on. Enjoy the pics! The Disneyland Hotel, which is the entrance to Disneyland. Gorgeous Hotel!

Pirates of the Caribbean!






























TOWER OF TERROR!!!!









The Eiffel Tower. It's so big! I never thought it was as big as it is.










Notre Dame Cathedral









The Mona Lisa, which is actually a very small painting. A lot smaller than I thought it would be.












Outside the Louvre. The architecture is amazing all around Paris.












Versailles was probably one of my favorite places to see. Very pretty and I love the history behind it.












The Space Mountain here in Paris is by far the best out of all the parks! It goes upside down and does barrel loops and it is so much fun!











This is me and Josh standing on top of the Queen of Hearts Castle in "Alice's Curious Labrynth". It had an amazing view looking over Fantasyland.



I love all the Disney park castles, but I think this one is my favorite. It has so much detail and I love the landscape around it with the waterfall. Beautiful!

















This is me having a Snow White moment with the little woodland creatures...I know I am weird.















Before the trip Emily broke her heel so she had a big old boot to wear and we had to rent a wheelchair for her, so this is her and Liza having fun with the chair.
















Our last night in the parks and in Paris we went to Walt's restaurant which is on Main Street over looking the park. It was so much fun and had great food. We had a great time in Paris and were so lucky for the experience. Thanks Pappy!

We are going to paris next week- I keep debating about going to Euro Disney. I've heard such mixed reviews about it. I'm very excited though, we'll have to compare notes when I get back!

Jess-

That looks awesome! I absolutely loved my trip to Europe and have wanted to go back since the day we got back. I too loved all of the architecture and learning of all the history that is there. Glad you had such a fun trip! (Say hello to all the girls when you see them for me!)
