Brugges, Belgium

While in Paris we had the opportunity to take a day trip into Brugges, Belgium.  After a morning full of transport issues... we finally made it! And it was totally worth the wait! Brugges is so quaint and lovely but it was so difficult to see everything in just a few hours.  If you ever get a chance to go, make sure to try the Belgian Waffles (which are NOT overrated in my book and are completely delicious) and make sure to bundle up! I swear once you walk into the middle of town it is at least 10 degrees cooler than when you walk out of the train station.  Also, be on the look-out for some London posts coming your way!

Can you believe these Swans?!

How picturesque is this town?  I felt like I was in Germany.

I loved this ice cream truck and the group of school boys lined up outside

Chocolatiers were everywhere in Brugges, but this one was so modern and chic I had to snap a pic!

Paris, France Part 3 (Family, Ladurée, and Notre Dame)

OK! So here are some of the final pictures from Paris (I'm sure I will sneak a few extra in during the next few weeks).  Even though this was my second trip, I had never been to Ladurée, so obviously I had to come back and see if their Macaroons are as good as everyone says. And guess what?  They're way better! Seriously!

Ladurée! World Famous Macaroons! They are quite expensive, but totally worth it! We literally went through 8 euros worth of cookies in 3 minutes!

We were all gifted these cute scarves by Cheri and they were the perfect "match nothing but go with everything" accessory :)

One last look at Notre Dame...

How awesome is this swing?  My inner child just couldn't say no!

Paris, France Part 1

These past few weeks have been such a blur! Stephen and I are officially graduated and moved out from our apartment in Provo....  And to celebrate, we had the opportunity to go to Europe with our family for two weeks!  It was so much fun and I was able to take some pictures to document our fun adventures! (So be on the look out for a bunch of new posts!)
