As if my circumstances in Paris couldn't get any more perfect, I am incredibly lucky that not only do I have a good friend and roommate in Brian, but also that my best friend in the entire world is studying in Paris this semester. While Alexis and I do not, unfortunately, go to the same college (neither back home in the States nor here in Paris), we went to the same high school. I've known her for about seven years, and we've been dreaming of studying abroad in Paris together almost that long. A few weeks ago we spent an evening just wandering from the Louvre all the way to the Eiffel Tower together, and I just wanted to share some of the pictures I took:
We met up outside the Louvre....
...then wandered through the Tuileries Gardens.
If you walk all the way to the other side of the gardens, you hit Place de la Concorde...
...where there are pretty fountains...
...and the famous 3300-year-old Egyptian obelisk that marks the spot where the guillotine did its thing during the French Revolution
Then we crossed over the river to walk down to the Pont Alexandre III.
"Alexis! Alexis! Take an artsy picture of me!"
Me taking my own artsy photos...
Accidentally moving my camera too soon after taking the picture...
True love. :)
