Typical Blogger Apology

Like 98% of bloggers in existence (the other 2% get paid), I have to post the typical "I'm sorry for not blogging for a while" entry. I'm not going to even lie and say I was really busy (I wasn't). But, I am still sorry.

So here are some things that happened during my absence:

-I went to the top of L'Arc de Triomphe at night (for free!!!!) and it was incredibly beautiful. I'm sure it would have been a great sight during the day, but everything was quite perfect.
-I went to Disneyland Paris! I have to say, I'm thoroughly convinced Disneyland is the coolest thing ever. I hadn't been to Disneyland since I went to the original when I was five, so I was overwhelmed by everything like it was the first time. Plus,. everything was outfitted with Christmas decorations, and I absolutely love Christmas (especially when you hear songs from "The Muppet Christmas Carol.")
-I went to the Galeries Lafayette. No, I didn't buy anything, but it was another spectacle. I tried on some Euro fashion with mixed reviews. Random non-nonsensical English applied to advertising was everywhere, including my favorite "Noel Chaud Show."
-I went to the American Cathedral. It was on a Tuesday afternoon, unfortunately (I had actually found it looking for a bank) so I couldn't go inside, but I took some lovely pictures. They have Thanksgiving there, so I'm looking into that.
-That's pretty much all I can recall.

I'll do my best to post things more often. I just have to get back into the swing of things. Here are some items to expect from the near(ish) future:

-The Louvre
-Musée D'Orsay
-The top of the Eiffel Tower
-Trip to England

I'm really excited about that last one! I'll be sure to bring my camera.

Well, that's all from France. Pictures below.

I. Love. Christmas.


No words...

View from L'Arc de Triomphe

I really need to go there at night.


Intimidating staircase (luckily we only had to walk down)


I wonder what we'll find when we leave this RER station...

DISNEYLAND!!!!!!!!!!


AHHHH THEY MADE MICKEY OUT OF HEDGES

CHRISTMAS!!!!

AHHH IS THAT A CASTLE???

IT IS IT'S A CASTLE


The best ride in existence (and no line!)

I love roller coasters (and free fast passes) 

It's a trap!...or a simulation


Honestly, not that frightening (and totally longer than a 15 minute wait that they promised)


Leave it to me...



Lights make everything better

Contact?

Merry Christmas! (almost)
