This was taken during Thanksgiving - Lizzie's fixing Grandma's hair while other customers wait their turn.

Au Clairon des Chasseurs

I don't know what the title of this post means, but it's the name of the little cafe we ate at in Montmarte. There isn't anything speacial about this motorcycle. This was taken shortly after we arrived in Paris and I was just really happy to see all the motorcycles.

First Impressions

These were taken right after we landed, rode the train into Paris, and came out of Gare Nord. We studied that map for a long time and walked around tell we could find a street sign to even tell what direction we needed to head towards to get to our hotel. Just looking at these pictures brings back that lost feeling along with feelings of excitement, exhaustion, being overwhelmed, and...a little disappointed. Gare Nord is not in the prettiest part of town. I was secretly wondering if we had made a mistake in coming to Paris. Buuuut, after some rest, food, and meeting up with Catherine and Craig, and encountering friendly people, we enjoyed Paris. You know what they say about first impressions...actually I don't really know what they say.

Amour de ma vie!

Uncle Craig with the love of his life - Catherine.

Lindsay took this picture - she claims it's the bomdigity ;)

Dipping at The Eiffel Tower

Lindsay and I have a tradition of taking "dipping" pictures. It all started at a girl's Bible study nine years ago. Lindsay and I were goofing off, and one of ours friends snapped a really cool shot. Ever since then at different events, the dip picture had to be taken. It's tradition! We even have one at Lindsay's wedding (I'll post it sometime). But having the dip picture taken at the Eiffel Tower is surreal. This has photo has now become my favorite!

Here are Lindsay's pictures...we are American tourists!
