We just got off our train the Eurostar from London and now we're in the city of
love and it is such a dream I already put the hotel robe on because I wanted
to be nice and cozy and we have this lovely balcony to enjoy which I was so
hoping for because we weren't sure if our hotel room would get a balcony it's
it's the tiniest little thing but it's still so magical and the weather is
absolutely heavenly so we are just going to enjoy it and have kind of a slow
afternoon we're gonna find a little cafe where we can get some coffee and a bite
to eat and then later this evening we're going to the Eiffel Tower and we will
climb to the top not till 9:00 p.m. though so we'll see the lights twinkle
and the city just come to life at night so really excited for that and neither
of us have done that before actually maybe you did that when you were a kid
right well Brandon did it when he was a kid but I have never done it so we're
gonna do it together and just enjoy this beautiful day in Paris
not really seem this valid so we were a little scared but we're getting through
it right babe we got our cozy little mocha and mace felt it M okay a instead
of MOC how do you don't love you CH a mo Zhi that's what I was thinking but it
thought it's so wrong I think they're waiting to actually record that he a
little too search who is a view we just had our little pastry picnic
Eiffel Tower and now we're looking for some more food Brandon is a little bit
more hungry so we're looking for something warm to eat maybe some pizza
maybe like a panini maybe some French onion soup I don't know it's actually
quite chilly so we want something cozy
back in our cozy spot in front of the Eiffel Tower I'm currently looking at it
and we didn't come back empty-handed we found some pizza and these are good
to go and we've got this little blanket I brought and we're about to enjoy it
with a view just like our dessert we ate our dessert before pizza which was just
the correct order I think but this is definitely the ideal situation is
absolutely beautiful and we are walking to the Eiffel Tower right now and we're
gonna go all the way to
they have a whole cafe and gift shop in the Eiffel Tower
good morning last night was dope and coming to the top of the Eiffel Tower I
wasn't sure how I feel about it because when you're at the top of the Eiffel
Tower you don't see the Eiffel Tower but it was actually so incredible saturated
experience we went all the way to the top because they have the option to just
go kind of halfway but we look all the way to the top and it was so worth it
but if you're afraid of heights I definitely do not recommend it because
you really go so so high and then we waited till 10 o'clock to see the lights
twinkle at samples higher which was also worth it in such a magical thing to
witness and this morning we are on a train if you can tell and we are enroute
will not forget but we will be in route to
colmar which is in a beautiful section of France I was actually inspired well
the beauty and the beast' of the lid that that lived in was
inspired where we're going so we're really excited and excited to relax and
maybe take a little nap on this trailer
we have made it safely to colmar it was about a three hour train ride from Paris
and from the station to the little old child the cute little part of coal mark
it's about a 10-minute easy a beautiful walk so that's what we're doing now then
can't we just see it we're so cool
pick up a little math on the way over to the old town of Kumar and it smells
absolutely scrumptious sometimes you just need to stop out a little cafe and
treat yourself
former come to this little cafe it was absolutely scrumptious and get the
quiche we are just our mouths are still watering
we've only been here for about an hour but I can confirm it is one of the most
magical places I have ever been and is absolutely stunning a true story book
fairytale village
we picked up some goodies from the market we got fat spacey
goat cheese a beautiful baguette for one year oh and some fresh apple juice
taking a little cappuccino breaks and the colmar Brandon's always looking down
on his phone when I do these updates because he likes to keep track of all
the money we were spending in our budgeting app so he's very organized
going on a train ride
when you're on the border of France in Germany and it's absolutely necessary
that should get yourself a bretzel it's so yummy as you can see I just took a
bite so I can confirm it's delicious
so yummy
this is definitely the yummiest macaron I've had and Brandon says his taste like
yummy apple pie hello so we just got back to our hotel room after the most
enchanting and beautiful day in Colmar it truly is like walking through a
storybook and if you have opportunity to go I would absolutely recommend it and
as you know we just did it in a day trip and it took a little under three hours
to get there the Train times do vary so definitely
try to get like a shorter trying time if you are just doing a day I would say we
had plenty of time to do everything that we wanted to do I mean really all we did
do was a walk around eat go in all the little markets and we rode that cute
little train tour which was really fun and it was only 16 euro wait no 14 euros
for both both the best so I thought that was a pretty good price it was just a
fun cute thing to do so I would definitely recommend that but it was
plenty of time so I think you could even like if you wanted to hustle and not
really have a slow day you could split up colmar in Strasbourg which is
strasbourg was actually on the way to colmar and it's another really popular
and beautiful city so you could even do both in one day I believe if you really
wanted to like go for it but we just kind of want to have wanting to have a
more relaxing and slow day and it's exactly what we had we are quite
tired still though as you know we did wake up pretty early to catch our train
so we're quite sleepy it's almost 9 p.m. now we are a little hungry even after
eating so much today so we're probably gonna order room service but we have to
check out the menu and then oh we're gonna wake up for our last full day
from Paris we had such a great and much-needed nights of sleep so we feel
well rested and ready to tackle the day in Paris so it's about 9:00 now little
after 9:00 and we are headed to breakfast my tumbly my tummy is rumbling
and then we're gonna go on a lot of adventures cross off lots of things and
you'd like to see on our last full day of vacation
the travel tip definitely download city mapper it is so helpful to getting
around big cities especially if you want to take public transportation
in the cold waters you can fill up your water bottles and they even have
sparkling water which is just so fancy they have a sparkling water fountain in
the middle of Paris
we just had such a delicious and healthful lunch and we sat outside
because the weather is just so perfect but we just watch walked past the
nurturer Dom and we are walking to hit them creeps now probably Nutella and
banana or strawberry and then we are going to a garden and then the loop
boy with his hockey crew
we just left a loop which by the way every Friday at least when I'm posting
this the lube it's free - 26 year olds and under however you have to buy a
ticket if you want to see the Mona Lisa which is basically a reason why
everybody would go there it's the most popular thing at the Louvre so a little
tip but just keep in mind you won't be able to see the Mona Lisa unless you buy
your ticket so we actually didn't spend too much time in there it was so packed
like a little overwhelming to me so we're back at the garden right outside
of the Louvre we're relaxing and just soaking up this obsolete gorgeous day
and then in a while when we work up some energy we'll probably go look for a
pretty view of the Eiffel Tower to say onward to our time and carats
hello we just got back to our hotel room after a full and fun day
in Paris I just checked my phone and we walked over 15 miles today
15 miles that is so much walking but we really do enjoy walking because you just
see so much and you can stop and pop into little shops or cafes and you know
take photos of cute Busey's so it's definitely our favorite way to get
around for our likes are absolutely pooped but before I end this travel vlog
I wanted to show you this backpack its high spirit London anti-theft backpack
and it is so absolutely amazing because it actually doesn't have any pockets or
anything on the front but it has this pocket on the back and lots of pockets
within the backpack and this is just so helpful and really eases your mind when
you're traveling because unfortunately pickpocketing is definitely a thing here
in Paris and other parts of the world so having this backpack just has a weight
lifted off your shoulder because you know no one is getting in and stealing
your stuff because they literally can't so I just wanted to share that because
that's really helpful because you know that could really your ruin your trip if
you get all your stuff stolen and so I love that and I loved this trip so
incredibly much and I'm so thankful for the opportunity to travel especially
with my husband Brandon but thank you guys so much for watching I really hope
you enjoyed it and be sure to watch my travel vlog from London as well
and off you
