Two Days in Paris

Recently, I've been overcome with a desire to forgo school in lieu of traveling. But, being the good student that I am, I try to find the balance in between.

Last weekend, my friend and I went to Paris for a total of 2 days. Our flight left early Friday morning in a neighboring city, so we ended up spending the night before sleeping in the airport.
Here is a creation we made during our overnight stay at the airport.

Arriving in Paris half-awake, we proceeded to see the sights including the following: The Eiffel Tower, The Louvre, The Pompidou center, Montmartre, Sacré Couer, Notre Dame, the Arc de Triomphe, the Champs-Elysées, and some others.

A night at the Louvre.

Notre Dame
Here are some crafty people putting on their own exhibit at the Modern Art Museum, the French were not amused, and the artists ended up being kicked out after they put on a g-rated porn show.

It wouldn't be Paris without a slew of accordionists.
Some band in Montmartre
Some stuff I dined on during my time in Paris

Croissants and pains au chocolat.
Nutella and banana crèpe.
Quiche de trois fromages.
Organic prepackaged salad

After being in Paris for all of 48 hours, I decided it lives up to it's name, and that I want to live there sometime in the near future. How many of you will visit me?


Here are some things I've cooked lately.

Butternut Squash soup.
Pear chocolate tart.
I'm officially a legal alien of Spain.
Next on my list of places to travel. Morocco? Portugal? Berlin? Amsterdam? Stockholm? Copenhagen? all of the above? recommendations?
