PaRiS 2010

Brady had work over in Europe, so I flew to Paris at the end of his work days and we spent a week in France. We hit Paris hard for 4 days and still didn't see everything! We had a blast! Here we are on the back side of Notre Dame. There was another American couple that took our photo. We climbed to the top and had a wonderful bird's eye view of Paris.
Le Tour de Eiffel. Just as the sun was going down. The crowd cheered when the lights came on it about an hour after this picture. Every hour there are twinkling lights on the whole thing. Of course, there was cheering then too! It took us 3 hour to stand in line to get to the elevators. The view was worth it!

This is Versailles. A huge Palace and grounds. The grounds once had 1200 working water fountains. Now there are about half that left. This particular building was a "house" built away from the palace and palace life.



The Louvre.
Brady is standing just below the glass pyramid. We loved this museum. So much to see!


Shopping in Paris





Snake River 1/2 Marathon

Here we are ready to go! It was a beautiful and warm sunny on March 6th along the snake river. There were more than 600 people there! We all met our goals and had a great time. Only one of us puked!
