Paris is a completely surreal type of place. From the first moment you see the Eiffel Tower your whole life changes, and you realize that this city completely lives up to the reputation that it has built up over the years. Pictured above is my favorite picture that I took while on the UVU study abroad. The whole entire week we had the absolutely best weather you could ask for.
The cool weather and the clouds not only helped with the picture taking but it was also a great way of staying moderately cool throughout the day while we walked everywhere. Going from Museum to Museum can get really tiring and I couldn't even imagine having to do that while the Sun was out and the temperature rose. The only time it got real uncomfortable was when we'd have to use the Metro during rush hour, but other than that the days were beautiful, in my opinion.
Out of all the places that we visited I feel like I need to talk about one of the most amazing rooms that I have ever visited. The Tomb of Napoleon would make any king envious of how extravagant and lavish everything inside is set up. We were the first people to enter the building, since we got there as soon as it opened, and so we were able to experience some silence while we walked through. The way everything is set up just impressed me and shot this building straight to the top of my "must visit museums" list.
For some extra aesthetically pleasing photos I thought I'd add this shot of the Notre Dame that I took. I really like it but I know there are millions that blow this one right out the water, the important thing is that I'm proud of it and that's why I'm posting it. To visit Paris is to make a dream come true and I think it's important to capture the moments that take your breath away, it may not impress others but it can help you relive the moments you enjoyed on your trip while you plan your return to that exact same spot!
To finish off my blog entry I wanted to add a picture that illustrates why this city is so magical. Paris is a romantic city and it should be celebrated for it. I captured a moment between our UVU study abroad Professor, Tammy Christensen, and her husband, Brent Christensen. I wanted to bring capture a moment of love in the city of love and I feel like this picture captured just that.
In conclusion Paris is an amazing city that deserves, at least, one visit in a lifetime from everyone that have the means to get there.
