Lisa and I went to Paris to visit with Brian and Ines for New Year's. We climbed the Eiffel Tower, walked through the Louvre, and visited the Pantheon, Luxembourg Gardens, Notre Dame, Sacre Cour, and Montmatre. And that was just the city!

From there we went up to Blonville (in Normandy) to spend New Year's Eve at Ines's family's summer home. It as beautiful, if a bit gloomy, and there was a really neat WWII German gun entrenchment site up on the nearest hill. We also walked to the Zero Meridian.

After New Year's, we came back to Paris for a couple days then headed north to Amsterdam!
