10-Year anniversary in Paris


With less than one week remaining during our Spain tour, we decided to take a quick 4 day trip to Paris in order to see this magnificent city one last time.  We also had unfinished business from our June 2012 visit as we did not get to formally tour the Eiffer Tower then.  Coincidentally, it also happened to be our 10th Wedding Anniversary, so what better way to celebrate it than with sleep deprived children in this world famous city synonymous with Love?

 The Love-Locks bridge in Paris....unfortunately, the panels are replaced often so none of the locks are very old!
