Last fall (September 2010), Adam’s parents treated us to an amazing family trip in France. We spent about 10 days exploring Paris and the south of France – drinking lots of wine, eating amazing food and touring beautiful places. Follow the photos below to enjoy our wonderful journey.
Saturday in France: Notre Dame and Montmartre
Arrival at our boutique hotel in the Latin Quarter

Monday: Travel to Avignon
waiting for our monday morning train to Avignon – the locals may have led us a bit astray when they said just show up and pic ur tickets.

needless to say we arrived and somehow fit everything into one car

In Avignon, we stayed at the most charming bed and breakfast. The streets here are crazy – one way, all brick, crazy little things, and this was tucked away, unnoticeable by anyone passing by. I wish I had more photos to share.

The town is also breathtaking. I could take pictures of the architecture all day.


Everyone needs ice cream – especially at a quaint little place like this in the South of France.

Adam being a bit of a goof in the Avignon parking garage.

Chateauneuf du Pape to be exact
