A Day in Paris

{dreamy buildings}

I know I promised South Africa pictures this week, and I pinky swear they’re coming, but before we get there I thought it’d be fun to take a wee peek at Paris. Because, I mean, when the opportunity to get lost in a few Parisienne photos arises you take it, am I right? You see, en route to Africa we ended up with a 15 hour layover in none other than the city of love. Though I won’t deny it was exhausting (hello jetlag and only a few hours sleep; on a plane no less), we rallied and I’m so glad that we did. My goal: to gorge on croissants (check), stroll through the Musee D’orsay (it’s closed on Monday – I don’t want to talk about it – I’m still crushed), indulge in a cheese plate (check, check!) and see the eiffel tower. All in all? A successful 15 hours.
