The day after the party we had the brilliant idea of going on a day trip to Paris. As it’s about 3 1/2 hours drive from where we were, it was quickly pointed out that driving there and back in one day was madness. A quick google later and we’d booked a hotel for 2 nights!
The last time we were in Paris was on our honeymoon three years ago, so it has a special place in our hearts! We covered lots of the typical tourist spots on our honeymoon…

…so this time we didn’t rush to the eiffel tower and instead did lots of meandering. The hotel we stayed at was Le 123 Hotel, which is right off the Champs Elysees – awesome.

Then we swung by Laudree, which is such a pretty building filled with delicious treats!

Later that night I discovered my new favourite shop, Sephora. It was about 10pm and raining when Pete dragged me into this wonderland. We stumbled out again a little poorer 🙂
