Europe 3: A Day in Paris


My mom and I had one day to see all the sights in Paris. We did the Faxity hop-on hop-off bus tours so we could see everything before getting on our train that night to Venice. If you want to see the sights in Paris then keep reading and looking!


As you might be able to tell I was really sick when we went to Paris. I had an awful cold but I wasn't going to let it get in the way of seeing all the amazing sights. Like Notre Dame, which you may think of the Disney movie. And sadly there wasn't talking gargoyles on the top of it. It was really pretty to just look at and to see something that has been around for so many years.



Next stop on the tour bus was the Arc De Triomphe. Which also holds the tomb of unknown soldier. I won't go into a history lesson about this monument but I do recommend learning about it. The tomb is a very interesting story. You do learn about it as well if you have a sight seeing bus with audio sets.


Last but certainly not least the Eiffel Tower! In all it's glory! It was so beautiful and such an amazing moment in my life. I have always loved the Eiffel Tower and how it looks. I have many things with it on and I have even gone to a painting class and learned how to paint it (sort of). I really loved doing this tour, even though I wasn't feeling so great, I will always remember my day in Paris seeing all the sights that I've dreamed of seeing in person.

GeekyCon 2016 Highlights

Meeting Maxwell Glick and Jon Cozart after the Disney sing-a-long after being on stage with them during a Tangled song and being in the front row dancing with them, two very sweet gentleman and I'm so happy I got to meet them and getting some youtube advise from Mr. Cheezypop himself! At the Charity ball I got to meet Ty Simpkins who is from Jurassic World and the Insidious films. He was also very sweet and nice of him to come out of the V.I.P area to interact with his fans and take photos for free and have nice conversations with everyone. That same night after the dance was the Harry Potter and the Cursed Child midnight release party! Potter Puppet Pals did a show, there was real life wizard chess, quid ditch matches, costume contests, being sorted by the sorting hat, and much more to do. It was so much fun and of course getting the book was icing on the cake. Then I got to meet Pemberly Digital! Frankenstein M.D., The Lizzie Bennet Diaries, and my p...

Tea Cup // Outfit Of The Day

I went to a tea room for lunch and this outfit inspired by English rose gardens and those pretty bone china floral tea cups. The back of the dress is open so I work a bralette that is a pastel pink and lace one. It went with the whole English tea room theme of the outfit and for the tea room we went to. The dress is white with pastel pink painted ross on it. I got it last year at Forever 21 and I don't think they sell this dress anymore. I really love the shape and color of the dress. I didn't want any shoes that took away from the dress so I paired this outfit with my nude flats I got at a boutique in California. The purse is by Betsy Johnson and I love wearing this with pastel outfits. It has a black bow and a pink fluff ball on the side. Gold chain and black straps. Its a fake leather with little black hearts. This has been one of my go to purses right now. Make sure you checked my previous blog post about the tea room I went to (The Twisted ...

Words To Eat By: Letrentehuit Brassiare

When we went to the Eiffel Tower we found a traditional french style restaurant called Letrentehuit Brassiare. I can't tell you exactly what street it was on but it was very close to the Eiffel Tower. The service was a little weird and my mom and I couldn't help but laugh at how it was run. But it was a great dining experience. My entree was a traditional cheese crepe with a side salad. It was a french cheese where I'm not sure what kind of crepe they used. It was brown, as you can see in the photo, and it had a more savory taste it. I really wanted a crepe to eat in France and a savory one was a great choice. I also had a glass of french rose wine and of course the bread was a baguette.  Dessert was the best part. Which isn't a surprise being in Paris. I thought it would be best to get a small dessert sampler. Top left was a pistachio mousse., top right was a chocolate mousse, bottom right was a toffee mousse, and the bottom left is clearly a creme bru...
