PARIS

Paris is pretty much a monster city. I look forward to going back someday, but next time I'll have a list of music acts for that weekend and I'll try to take in some big city crazyjazz. This trip to Paris was 100% tourist. Best way to burn calories!

The running in joke for us in Paris was that we would have to go see all the main attractions, then go to the top of them. This pic is from top of the Arc de Triomphe Please click to enlarge, the pic is way cooler full size!



It really is unbelieveable how much room there is on the inside. You go up the stairs in one of the legs, and in the top part there is a whole museum in there!


French food was generally pretty awesome. Except for the snails and other bug creepy-crawly like things.


Im at the top of the Eiffel Tower, and I'm squashing buildings. Rawr.


Please click on this one too. Way cool.

Side view of the Notre Dame cathedral. A little more on this later!

We had a museum pass, and we spent a whole day in the Louvre. From the Musée d'Orsay This is my obligitory tourist snapshot of everybody's buddy Vinnie:


Popular landmark in Paris, The Sacré-Cœur Basilica
