We took advantage of Andrew's half-term break and took a trip to Paris! We were there for 5 nights and we crammed a lot into each day.
We took our car through the chunnel, with about 3 hours of driving on each end, so it was a long day. And then once we realized that our international roaming wasn't working properly on our phones so we had a hard time contacting our Air BnB host to get access to our apartment but we eventually got everything working. Because we were right in the city, there was no/limited parking nearby so after we unloaded our luggage Aaron had to spend some time getting our car parked and then walking back to the apartment. So we didn't get to see much of anything on our first evening except what we saw from the car on our way in.
But the next morning we got started and didn't stop until it was time to head home several days later!
