Paris trip: Back to Paris

Notre Dame
 My last day in Paris, I was back to see my family. I was not able to see all my friends and family but 5 days was too short to see everybody. I still managed to see my friends Monique and Nadine and we went to an Indian restaurant at the beginning of my trip and it was wonderful to see them.
My last day I spend it with my close family in Paris. We met at the Notre dame. It was my favorite place to meet when I was younger and still is.
 La Seine



 This is all the pretty places you see if you walk around Notre dame. Then we took the subway and went to Les champs Elysees.

La Duree is on the Les Champs Elysee. Sephora also, so we all smelled super good!

 Paris has the prettiest buildings and architecture.
And prettiest double doors.

 I love those real topiaries.

Cartier building and store. Fancy!

My 2 brothers, Mimi, my cousin and my Mom. At the Champ Elysee.

With me.

This is the Viaduc de Passy. A very famous bridge. It is in a lot of movies. It's on the way to the Eiffel tower.


Mimi and the Eiffel tower or La tour Eiffel.

We went on the top of the Eiffel tower.


You can see all the old buildings. They are all beautiful and the same style.
It was our last day. We went home the next day.
Bisous!

First day in Paris

Eiffel tower and carousel with Mimi

After 15 hours, 2 planes, 4 hours in Philadelphia, we finally arrived in Paris early in the morning. We were pretty much dead from the trip. The next day we went to Paris and went to Les Halles Shopping stores and stopping for lunch at the fountain outside, I used to hang out there and get some food years ago.

Then we walked to Le louvre where Mimi had fun feeding the pigeons.

We walked through the Jardin des tuileries.

 We took the subway to the Eiffel tower for ice cream and a picnic in the grass.

We went home very tired from all the walking. It was Mimi's first time taking the train and subway.
It was very nice to be back to my city and go around with the public transportation like in the old days and The weather was warm and perfect!!
I finally got to see my Mom and family after so long.
