Paris est belle

Every morning at the Fiap (where we are living in Paris) we get to wake up to the lovely sound of construction right across the street. It's just wonderful....

...i'm kidding about it being wonderful.

But, since i'm up, I will blog! :)

Sunday we went to Claude Monet's gardens and it was so gorgeous. Unfortunately for me, I was exhausted that day. I felt like the jet lag and staying up late from the concert all hit me. However, I got over it and enjoyed the once in a lifetime opportunity. Here are some of my favorite pictures from the garden:

 It's pink, of course I love it!




Best friends in the garden! :)



Now tell me this isn't beautiful. Does this look familiar to anyone?:)

Funky flowers!


The gardens were beyond beautiful. I would like to go back and spend some more time there. 
After the gardens we drove a little ways to see where van Gogh is buried. We had to walk across this huge wheat field to get to the cemetery, but it was a lot of fun and very beautiful in the country side.

The pretty red flower is called a poppie! They were everywhere! 


 The group in the wheat field!

Our final destination, van Gogh's (and his brother) grave!


I know some of these pictures are probably truly boring to my facebook friends, because none of these pictures do France justice. The beauty here is overwhelming!
