Paris - Day 1 & 2

Straight after work on Thursday we headed to Waterloo Station and jumped on board the Eurostar bound for Paris! Our room at our quaint little hotel had us humming the tune to 'National Lampoons European Vacation' pretty much the whole time we were there. My God it was small, but we loved it - check out the wallpaper!

Early on Friday we decided to head out into town via the beautiful Jardin de Luxembourg where we tried out our French and ordered the first of many 'deux fromage sandwiches s'il vous plait' - our staple food forthe weekend. (Aussie translation: two cheese sangas thanks)


After strolling through the beautiful streets, drooling on the windows of the many patisseries and enjoying the views of the Seine we wondered over to the Eiffel Tower...


After taking a few happy snaps and thinking twice about lining up behind the other 100,000 tourists, we decided to tackle the tower another day and headed back to St Germain for a lovely romantic dinner...
