Paris

The first thing we did when we arrived in Paris was see the Eiffel Tower. It did not dissappoint. It was  just as incredible as I had always imagined!


After the seeing the Eiffel Tower we decided to go and check out the Louve. We decided to just walk there. It was farther away then we thought, but finding it was half the fun.



We made it!


Shane loved that the cop behind him was on roller blades. 



There she is! 




After the Louve on our way to Notre Dame we came across this bridge covered in Love Locks. 


We couldn't resist and added a lock to the bridge. :)




I guess we will just have to come back one day and find our lock. ;)



Notre Dame, I couldn't help looking for the hunchback Quasimodo. 




Check out the gargoyles! 



After a being caught in a huge rainstorm we strolled the Champs-Elysees.


The Arc de Triomphe


We then enjoyed dinner and found the best view of the Effiel tower. Nothing beats seeing the Effiel tower when it is all lit up! 


The next day we strolled through Paris's flower market. 



We went to Musee d' Orsay which was by far my favorite museum. We saw art by Van Gogh, Monet,  Degas, Renoir, and my favorite Seurat. 


After we went to the Montmartre area (after getting lost in a slightly scary neighborhood) and saw this awesome street performer. He had some crazy soccer skills! 


The rooftops of Paris. 


The Sacre Coeur





We loved our time Paris! We are so grateful for the time we were able to spend with each other on this amazing trip.

Frankfurt, Germany

After Rothenburg we piled into the car and headed to Frankfurt so we could catch our train to Paris the next morning.

Super Jude 



Vienna being adorable like always! 




We enjoyed dinner in the middle of a rainstorm, afterwards we were able to witness a beautiful rainbow! 





Rothenburg Ob Der Tauber, Germany


Rothenburg was an incredible city. Its cobbled streets, and city wall made me feel like we had gone back in time. 






We started our day off with some breakfast that consisted of hot chocolate, and giant pastries that were delicious! 












We spent the rest of the day wandering through the town taking pictures and browsing through the shops.






The toy store. 







Brautwurst anyone?


Just hanging outside the city wall.
