Two days after our wedding my new husband and I left for our European honeymoon.  Our trip to Europe was both our first time to the continent and our first vacation, togethe, longer than 5 days.  Being that he’s in the restaurant industry, we never have a chance to get away for extended periods of time.  We’ve become accustomed to frequent 3-day weekend trips which has sufficed our hunger for travel in the 5 years we’ve been together.  However, being that this trip was our honeymoon, the boss let him get away for 2 weeks and a few days :)

Our honeymoon was supposed to begin in Spain.  A delayed flight, cancelled flight, and re-routed flight later we ended up at CDG.  With a few hours to spare, we took our flight attendant’s advice and hopped on a train to St. Michel.  We didn’t have time for the Eiffel Tower but we did have time to see the Notre Dame Cathedral, have lunch, and grab a chocolate croissant.

Our quick sample of Paris was a nice little taste of future vacations to come.
