Last weekend, four Domestic Sluts packed their bags, headed to the romantic kissing statue in Kings Cross early in the morning and made their way to Paris on the Eurostar. Here are some things that we saw and did and laughed about.
This gorgeous chandelier was in A la Mere de Famille, Paris' oldest confectioners.
Metro signs are prettier in Paris.
It's like a mansion birdcage! For posh birds!
We got to The Louvre at dusk, this is my favourite photo of the whole trip. It's all spooky.
The view from the bar hidden in The Louvre. The Eiffel Tower and Arc de Triomphe are just out of shot. Best glass of wine I've ever had.
You didn't expect to see a standard Eiffel Tower shot, did you?
There's so much we didn't get to see, so much more to explore. So many more expensive shoe shops to play in when we have more pennies (and when the pound is doing better). I get the feeling our love affair with Paris has only just begun. We had a fabulous time. The girls are great travelling companions.
We probably walked around 16km, sometimes not going anywhere inparticular. Sometimes going in the wrong direction (well done, Jane). We opted to stay in our hotel having a champagne and bread and cheese picnic on Saturday evening. So much fun. Lazy exploring is a good way to describe our weekend. There was stuff to see, and we had a vague feeling of a plan, but if it didn't pan out, we wouldn't have cared.
Favourite bits? Jane's French, Alex gasping at the Eiffel Tower, steak frites, seeing The Louvre for the first time and being utterly speechless. Me trying to direct the girls in the train station and following the airplane symbol. Hehe! Everything.
Just four girls, exploring and eating too much cheese and bread. Fabulous.
Want to see more photos of Paris? Go on then. We won our tickets in a competition, but a special mention goes to We Are Social (again). Thank you!
We're on us holidays!
