So back to my Euro trip. After London---> next stop Paris! Like I said before, since I had never been to Europe, I had to visit as many places as I possibly could! I did work while in Paris but only for a half of a day. I was working with an AMAZING cinematographer! Just wait until you see this video we shot! You are all going to love it, whether its your thing or not, its very cool. For the shoot, I stayed in this pretty swanky hotel that is not well advertised to the US, its called the Plantine. For those of you that saw last weeks video: A Night in Paris, this was in the hotel room. Sort of an Old Hollywood vibe with photos of historic American celebrities-ironically enough...in Paris, most people spoke broken English but were always jamming to our music, which I found funny! The next day, I took a tour of the Palace of Versailles. If you ever visit Paris, its something you MUST see! The beauty & history here will leave you speechless (I will be saying that a lot in these travel blogs, but its true!)
Crazy lines to get in as it was Easter weekend |
All gold & carved-just beautiful |
If the massive Palace isn't enough to blow you away, The Gardens of Versailles ssituated to the west of the palace-will! The gardens cover some 800 hectares of land, much of which is landscaped in the classic French Garden style.
Just some fun quick info about the garden: Size: 800 hectacres, Number of trees: 200,000, Flowers planted annually: 210,000, Number of fountains:50 It was really spectacular!
Photos don't do this place justice |
Peekaboo! |
First, I went to the Louvre, which was so massive and amazing, I was really disappointed that we only had 2 hours there, in order to see this place, you need at least a day-that's even if you have ADD like myself. I was really bummed I didn't get to see the Egyptian section. I did see the Mona Lisa of course and the French & Italian sections. I've always loved history but I didn't really know how much I like art until now.
Venus de Milo, is an ancient Greek statue and one of the most famous works of ancient Greek Sculpture. |
A portion of the original Louvre |
After the Louvre, we took a River taxi to the Eiffel Tower for lunch. Getting to the top of the tower & having lunch was certainly magnificent. The view of the entire city is awesome. Unfortunately the tour guide was so unorganized that she never pre-purchased the groups admission tickets anywhere, so we spent a lot of time waiting for her to do that plus she allotted 3.5 hours at the Eiffel Tower but only 2 at the Louvre-backwards.
Spectacular view |
So after I was done eating, I went on without the tour, I felt like I was burning daylight and wanted to make sure I saw everything. I convinced the River Taxi guys to let me on without my group and went on to see Notre Dame Cathedral. That was so beautiful! I couldn't help but realize that on Easter Sunday, the most anti-organized religious person I know-me! was in church! Funny how these things go.

There were people actually worshipping |
Over all, I am so glad I was able to experience Paris although I am not sure that I would travel there again since there are so many other places I am dying to see! Stay tuned for next weeks travel blog when I travel down to the South of France first to work and then to continue my adventures!
Remember in the meantime to keep your votes coming in to show your support & love of the content I provide for all of you & the hard work I do everyday to keep it coming!
