#TBT - Our Honeymoon - October 2010

After our beautiful wedding on October 16, 2010, we departed for an even more beautiful honeymoon in Paris, Burgundy and London. We stayed 3 nights in Paris, 2 nights in Burgundy, and 3 nights in London. In Paris, we stayed at the Hotel Raphael in a junior suite. We went to the Louvre, the Lido Caberet, up the Tour Eiffel, through the Cathedrale Notre Dame, walked all over the city, took a cab out to the Palace of Versailles and ate cheese and drank wine. Then we rented a car and drove through the Bourgogne Region in the heart of France for 2 days where we visited the medieval palace of Fountainbleau, some little towns and medieval churches, and stayed in a very romantic and secluded chateau. Finally, we flew to London for the remainder where we stayed at the Hazlitt's Hotel. While we there we visited the Tower of London, Westminster Abbey, Harrod's, took tours, walked everywhere and ate meat pies and drank ale. It was a glorious, amazing 8 days that I will never forget. We had so much fun! We can't wait to go back to London someday, it is a city that has it "all" for us. We didn't even scratch the surface of everything we wanted to do while we were there! Bunch of pics, coming right up...

First day in Paris. Our hotel was right around the corner from the Arc de Triomphe! It was awesome.

Meandered down the Champs Elysees to Le Louvre

Notre Dame. You almost wish you were Catholic in a place like that!

Paris at night is one of the most breathtaking sights the world has to offer.

Versailles. Simply gorgeous.

In front of Marie Antionette's chateau (Petit Trianon) on Versaille.

We stopped at some towns and visited some old churches on our drive through Bourgogne. This was one of them.

Fountainbleau, the medieval royal hunting lodge in Bourgogne. Pretty sure I was a French royal in a former life! Driving through the French countryside was so much fun.
