From Paris with Love

I rode a bicycle around Paris streets singing this... how lovely.


Lunch before we left.. preparing myself for great coffee! Hooray!
There was a mannequin that looked just like Kate, also drinking coffee. amazing.
Two from our party of six, Vicki and Ollie all excited on our Eurostar train.
Jez, a bit excited in the back row there.
Kate, ecstatic!
We made it under the channel, through the metro and to our hostel in excellent time (cheers boys!) and out to a fabulous dinner. I didn't order the steak (big regret) rather accidently ordered my Shepherds pie so that it sounded like I was ordering some hashish.. the waitress and I were instantly friends. Sort of.
All wine is excellent in Paris
We spotted the Eiffel Tower on our way home, with full bellies and light heads we jumped the whole way home.
Sunday morning stroll to find Café au lait s'il vous plaît... its pretty much the only thing I knew how to say :)
merci
We just started walking toward the Eiffel tower and we came across all sorts of wonderful things..
Megs strutting her stuff :)
Market that we stumbled across.. great antiques and prints.
Lunch under the tower.
To the river on the other side
Vicki feeling the Paris love
Me and Cameron Diaz under the tower.
Looks like someone likes steroids. Jonny this one goes out to you :) This faces the Eiffel tower.. does it get any more masculine or phallic? I couldn't help but laugh... and take a picture.
We had a group of Korean tourists come up and take pictures with us all.. Megs is showing the Asian love.
Getting all tuckered out from walking in the sun all day.
Garden party at Jim's house with 60-80 other keen travellers. Brilliant night.
Inside Jim's place, shelves covered in books.. so lovely.
More wine with new friends.
And we all basically fell into bed. The boys.
Cute sleepy Megs and a sneaky hiding Vicki
Overly tired Kate, not feeling the love anymore. ... till tomorrow. xx
