In last week’s Friday Fun post, I told you guys we were planning to go to Paris, France, to celebrate our first wedding anniversary. Well, we went, and we had an AMAZING time! We walked around the Eiffel Tower at night (the lights started to sparkle right as we walked underneath it…so magical), took a river boat tour along the Seine River, saw the Cathedral of Notre Dame, spent the afternoon at the Louvre Museum (saw the Mona Lisa, Athena Nike of Samothrace & Venus de Milo…my three highlights), relaxed by a large fountain in a beautiful park, walked along the Champs Elysees, ate plenty of French food and enjoyed just walking around Paris and taking in the city. It was the perfect first anniversary celebration, in the city of love and lights!
One of the great things about living in Italy is being so conveniently located to other European countries. It took us less than two hours to arrive to Paris. Breakfast in Rome, lunch in Paris…not a bad day. 🙂
Another great thing about Rome is having access to low cost airlines, such as Easyjet and Ryanair. The hubby and I both were able to fly to and from Paris for only around €100. That’s about €50 each for a round-trip ticket. Pretty incredible!
We can’t wait to decide when our next travel will be. We are already talking about other countries we would like to visit soon.
