Gay Paris


Alissa and I spent the last leg of our trip in Paris. What a journey it's been over the last three weeks. It's a bittersweet end as we head off in opposite directions--Alissa to Rome and them back to OR and I head to Spain. 

Paris is a great city, so full of life and so much to see and do. We both have visited Paris before and wanted to have a  different experience.  But of course, no trip would be complete without a visit to the Notre Dame, Arc de Triomphe, and Sacre Coeur.  The Musee d'Orsy was a first as well as the new Yves Saint Laurent museum and Picasso Museum.

What a view of the iconic landmark

We skipped the Louvre this trip

  1. Great to see these photos as I sit in the airport on my way to Rome. And as Bogie said to Ingrid Bergman. We'll always have Paris. What a great city. What a great time traveling through France with you my intrepid adventurous travel partner and friend/Latvian sister. Alissa
