Oh, hello Paire

My Aunt and I hopped on a train to Paire from Germany. It was about a 3 hour train ride. Seats were comfy. If you can pay a little extra for the leg room.


All aboard


You can see much of the most beautiful country side this way. 


Stopped for a spot of tea.


YAY, its the Eiffel tower. I always thought it was amazing in pictures but to see it in person was breath taking. 





 Saw the famous Mona Lisa. I would recommend making this your first stop. There can be a lot pushy people trying to get a look at her.




Norte Dame




 I had climbed the 402 narrow steps to the bell tower. While I was up there the bells where ringing. Such an amazing sound. I was able to record it on my phone. ( Cant figure out how to share it with you guys, sorry)


 I don't remember how many steps it was to the very top of the tower. But I did it and once again the view was breath taking.


 Celebrating after making it back to the bottom.


This is a must see and a must do. It is in the red light district, the shop windows have some very interesting souvenirs. You can take the Metro. We took the city bus tour earlier in the day. Then took it to this part of Paris and took a cab back to the hotel.  You can get your tickets through Vistor. We splurged, dinner and the show. ($150.00 included a 5 course meal, we each got a half bottle of wine to ourselves, great seats and a great show) Pictures were not aloud to be taken inside. They do walk around and take pictures of you at your table, those pictures are $20.


More of France to come!!

Vatican City then headed home

As I finish up sharing my trip to Europe, I have started making plans to go to Australia.  Its hard to believe that it has been a year already since my last adventure. I must say a great way of finish up this amazing trip is going to the Vatican . My Aunt and I had purchased our tickets for the museum a head of time to avoid the lines. Highly recommend do this. As we waited for out time to enter the museum, we decided to walk around a bit. We decided to go in to Vatican City. We noticed that there were large crowds forming. Turns out that on Wednesdays that Pope Francis has a papal audience and gives mass . . We decided that you cant come to Vatican City and not see the Pope if he is having mass. There was a few hours before it stat, so we went to the museum. The last supper painted by Leonardo da Vinci The tombs were just fantastic to see, such great detail, telling a story. I snuck of picture of the Sistine Cha...
