Beautiful Paris (part une)

The longest leg of the trip was also my absolute favorite. I absolutely fell in love with Paris. I haven't felt this way about a city since the first time I stepped foot on a New York City sidewalk. The first night we went on a bike tour and it was the best $37 I spent the entire trip. It was all English-speaking tourists, and it's where we met two amazing girls we spent the rest of the week with. The smartest, friendliest 19-year-olds I've ever met. One is spending a year in Paris as an au pair, and I so envy her courage. If only I was that brave when I was 19. I feel like there is so much to share about Paris and all I can say is it was amazing. So much delicious food, gorgeous sights and so many laughs. The most memorable parts are eating dessert at lunch, Laduree macarons, the adorable dogs (even though the owners leave their poop everywhere) and eating lunch alone while writing and gazing at Notre Dame. I am so lucky. I'll have part two of the photos tomorrow.
