Paris

My husband surprised me with a trip to Paris over thanksgiving so we went for 5 days!! It was fun. We went to see all the touristy stuff. France is so craaazy I could've taken a thousand pictures. Like all the ornamentation on the buildings, those boggle my mind. Fashion-wise, there was a huge trend of wearing your boots over your pants, I guess that's kind of an 80s comeback. And it is very strange, there are really no fat people in Paris. But I must say their subway is really disgusting; I've been spoiled by the MTR in HK.

A store window with a fancy castle:
PRINCESS MONONOKE!!! (At the Louvre):
Notre Dame:
Crepes:
At Versailles. Since we went in the winter, Versailles wasn't looking its best. This fountain was sooo cool though, the bottom tier has four merfolk (split-tail style, like the Starbucks logo), then cherub mer-kids above, then fish, then lobsters on top. HOW COOL:

Self-explanatory. I am thankful that a steady-handed tourist girl walked by at this moment:

Words cannot describe how jealous of you I am right now.

(P.S. you look like Audrey Hepburn at the Louvre...)
