So sad.  Left Italy today.  This picture was actually from yesterday afternoon.  We left super early this morning.  Not happy about A) Leaving this beautiful place and B) The very long journey we are about to endure to get home!

Au Revoir Paris, Bongiorno Italia!!!

Just arrived in Florence, Italy.  I remember loving it when I came here on a tour about 10 years ago which is why I wanted to come back.  It's even better than I remember!

This was my first gelato.  Pistashio and Tirimisu.  So amazing.  Yum!

Today we went up to Montmartre & the Sacre Coeur.  It was too crowded in that immediate are which is a shame because normally I love it so much.  I love all of the Artists painting and the little cafes and craperies and shops.  When I say I love the "Artists", I don't mean the ones that beg to draw your portrait.  I mean the ones that paint the scenery up there.  It's so awesome.  We did manage to walk around some of the quiet surrounding streets where I got a few amazing pics.  This is one of them.  The colors are stunning.

Spent all day strolling around Paris.  Both of us have been multiple times so we did not need to do all of the museum/super touristy stuff.  So we mainly walked around enjoying the sights and neighborhoods.

Of course the night ended with a trip to the Eifel Tower.  And what an amazing night it was.  We got a full moon!!!  We are both obsessed with the moon so this was super exciting in a dorky way.  :)

Got to Paris today!  After a long flight with layover included, we arrived in Paris and at our most adorable hotel (Hotel Therese) around 2pm.  Took a little cat nap that lasted about 5 hours.  Then decided to head out for a walk around the area and some dinner.  How cute are our room keys!!??

I leave in 2 days for Europe and I have not packed a thing.  And tomorrow I work and have a concert.  Yep. Awesome.
