We got back from Paris about two months ago.\u00a0 The plan was to post photos every day, it didn\u2019t happen.\u00a0 I will be posting the photos in the order that they were taken.<\/p>\n

We made it to Paris; our bags didn\u2019t.\u00a0 Whatever, we were in Paris.\u00a0 Our hotel was in the center of town and our room had a view of Notre Dame.\u00a0 We also had a bottle of wine waiting for us in the room, thanks to Jessica.\u00a0 After a few glasses we went to see the cathedral.\u00a0 The first thing Jess did was light a candle for her Dad who had passed away earlier this year.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\u00a0The place was very ornate with statues and carvings all over the walls and archways.\u00a0 I took more photos of the cathedral, if you want to see them come over to the house.<\/p>\n

Later we ended up near the Louvre and decided to go in. \u00a0We made it through the Egyptian wing and the part with all the statues.\u00a0\u00a0 It\u2019s not really my thing Jess loved it though.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The next day we had breakfast at the hotel we were staying at.\u00a0 The walls of the lobby\/restaurant were covered with paintings and photographs from guests who had stayed there.\u00a0 If you look directly over Jessica\u2019s head you will see a painting of a lady on all fours and another lady about to\u2026. I don\u2019t know leap frog her or something, it was very strange.\u00a0 Oh and there is a sheep in the background watching them.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\u00a0We headed north just to check things out.\u00a0 Walked by the Pompidou museum, this is the modern art museum, more my thing.\u00a0 It didn\u2019t open for another few hours so we just kept walking.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Jess suggested that we go to the catacombs,(Catacombs of Paris – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia<\/a>\u00a0)which was on the other side of town.\u00a0 When we got there we were told that the wait would be about an hour and half.\u00a0 After waiting about 45 minutes I left to go find some beer for us.\u00a0 It did make the wait more enjoyable.\u00a0 While waiting we met a guy from Spain that we later ran into in Normandy.\u00a0 We also meet a father and daughter from the eastern part of France.\u00a0 Jess told them what happened to our bags, they said that after the catacombs they were headed to the shopping area of town and would show us the way.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

At the end of that second day we had hit our limit with wearing the same cloths.\u00a0 Tensions ran high, wine was poured and tears were shed.\u00a0 When we woke up on the third day to find our bags outside our hotel room door.<\/p>\n
