Paris photo diary. Paris is one of those cities which just feels magical. I'm not sure if it is the tall shuttered buildings and grand parks, or the cliched romanticism that it just seems to exude, but it is one of those places that I would be happy to go back to over and over again. I'd say that considering the various obstacles that we came across, most notably, the guy whose apartment we were renting not showing up, we managed to squeeze in everything that I had planned over the two days in Paris.

Considering that it's the middle of summer, the weather didn't fare so well, with intermittent rain showers and slightly lower temperatures having me wishing I'd brought my jacket with me. Among some of the things that we did, was climb to the second floor of the Eiffel Tower and get the lift to the very top, stop by the Tuileries, see the Venus de Milo and Mona Lisa at the Louvre among other things, wander underground to the Arc de Triomphe, shop along the Champs Elysees (with a quick stop at Laduree), as well as drink a number of espressos along the way. Somehow I managed to buy three breton stripe tops in the space of a couple hours, as well as a couple of special things from Celine. Surely it's without any surprise that I'm already thinking about going back.
