Hi Everyone,
Tui and I spent Xmas in Paris and it was fantastic!!!!!! I love the French!!!
Guess who we saw?? Woody Allen and his young wife, Soon-Yi!!! They stayed at the same hotel as us!! They were right in front of us on the escalators! He looked like any little old man and she looked like any typical Asian mom/lady!! She was really casually dressed. We didn’t take a photo as it was Xmas day and it would be a little bit annoying for them! (…)
We loved our hotel as it was really close to the Eiffel Tower and it overlooked the Seine River.
We could see the French Statue of Liberty from our room as well. Can’t believe the French gave the Americans the big one and kept the small one for themselves!!
Ok..I will let the pictures to do the talking! Though you may seen some of these before but I thought it would be nice to see them again in a winter setting. The coolest thing was going on the Ferris Whell at Place de la Concorde.
Besides Galaries LaFayette (ie like Isetan/David Jones/Selfridges), we went shopping around Les Halles and visited a few churches.
The Xmas Market at La Defense was Fab!!!! We also had afternoon tea at Laduree at Champs-Élysées. YUMMMMM…..Expensive but well worth it!!! I couldn’t help it but I had to take a lifestyle shot of me on the Champs-Élysées reading a French paper! Hahaha!!! I had too since I had my Louis Vuitton bag with me and I was living my superficial dream!! haha!!!
Hope you guys had a great Xmas too and may 2008 be everything that you wished for and more!!!!! Happy New Year!!!
