My Five Favourite Things In Paris

1) How many things come in the shape of the eiffel tower...and using Counterfeit Eiffels to cover the real one

2) Having baguette fights

3) Attempting to climb anti-climb lampposts

4) A bridge by Notre Dame full of locks and messages

5) A giraffe eating out of a bin

More Views of Paris

I loved looking down at all of the people and cars, felt like being in an Andreas Gursky Photograph

Muséum national dHistoire naturelle

The Muséum national dHistoire naturelle had a great selection of skeletons, specimens and stuffed animals, as all quality natural history museums should. It also had some nice illustrations etched into glass. Also not so good an entire exhibition dedicated to arachnids. Being phobic I didn’t go anywhere near this, but much to my family’s amusement jumped at all glipses of promotional material!

Anaphase?

Foggy Night

The view of Paris from the 56th floor of Montparnasse Tower was awesome! However, it was foggy with hazy rain and super hard to keep the camera still in the insane winds!

French Food!

Beaucoup de french food! L'oranges, chocolat, la crepe, les cafes, le chocolat chaud, eiffel tower pasta, eiffel tower sweets... and of course LES BAGETTES!

Total croissant count for three days: 10!

Starting my Pinterest obsession

I am going to Paris this weekend so have been searching for some inspiring images on Pinterest. I'm hoping to take lots of photos, but due to packing light think I will only take two cameras; my  Olympus OM2 and Canon 1000D... a small fujifilm instax mini may also creep in!

Je suis alle a Paris!

Yay!
I'm going with my family to Paris to celebrate my little brother's 18th! Last time I went to Paris I was recovering from a knee operation and navigating the Metro was super tiring on crutches. This time I will be happy to have my hands free to take lots of photos to show you!
