Notre Dame - Paris

Notre Dame 
This is our first day in Paris after seeing the Eiffel tower in the morning, the line to enter the church is long but moving steadily.


Madurodam

Madurodam - Den Haag
We are still have a bit of jet lag, but the show must go on, so we called Uber to take us here, a miniature world designed originally as a memorial to soldier MADURO. This place always evolve and new places are being added each year.

Rue Cler

Rue Cler
Rue Cler is very convenience for the travelers, you can almost find anything in the street, cafe, fruit stand, flower shops, gelato and many more. Our hotel is located right smack on this street.





Arc de Triomphe

Arc de Triomphe
We took BIG BUS Tour for two days including a river cruise and night tour, we only have three full days in Paris so time is very limited, please excuse the windshield reflections from the bus. When we had a night tour, we had a bit of time in taking pictures from the side.



Musee de Louvre

Musee de Louvre on a dark and cloudy day
We took Uber to get here to beat the crowd and we make sure we have enough time to take pictures of this unique museum. It was really dark but even light, my only wish is the morning is not so dark, nonetheless we enjoy going around the museum.

Keukenhof

Keukenhof on a sunny day
Two things I am complaining, too many people and it is a sunny day, thus I have to deal with all the shadows and it is going to be harsh. I even learned the Dutch words. "Teveel Mensen, vervelend!", other than that, we thank you for our personal tour guide - Evan.



Paris from above

Trocadero
On our last full day, we walked to Eiffel Tower and explore the second floor and had lunch there, the view is stunning and the clouds sometimes make the images more dramatic.
