Went to Paris with my sweetie, just for 2
nights and 3 days but it was very romantic and we enjoyed it a lot! It
was my 4th time visiting the city of love but the first 2 times, I was
still a child and my brother and I were more interested in Disneyland
Paris than the city itself. ;-P
Paris
is really such a beautiful city! It has so many stunning old buildings,
the architectures there are grand and gorgeous, everything is artsy,
poetic, charming and romantic...
Breakfast is served when you travel 1st class with TGV, the French high speed train. :) Thanks to a special offer of SNCF we got upgraded to 1st class for one way without extra charge!
Pont de l'Archevêché and Notre Dame
Couples engrave their initials on the padlocks, fasten it to the railings and toss the keys into the Seine as a symbol of their undying love
Ahhh, the beautiful Notre Dame...
Pyramide du Louvre - it reminds me of The Da Vinci Code. ;)
Le mur des je t'aime - the I love you wall ♥
The sentence features 311 times in 250 languages!
La basilique du Sacré-Cœur

The Eiffel Tower of course :)
L'église de la Madeleine
So monumental... The guardian angel
The modern part of Paris: La Défence and the iconic Grande Arche.
On the very far end (on the center of the picture), you can see the Arc de Triomphe!
Too bad I forgot how to speak
French... I learned the language for 9 years (!) at elementary,
secondary school and state college of higher education and used to be
quite fluent but now... I forgot so many words and the grammar!
Maybe I should take some brush-up lessons; being able to speak French is a huge advantage in Switzerland - especially when you are applying for jobs and it's even one of our four national language...
I have to come back to Paris again and stay longer!
