Well, well..after 10 years of wishing, I finally made it! So my life is already half complete now. The other half would be a baby and a bungalow. One can always wish right? (referring to the latter) :P
Air France's meal did not disappoint! Here's our dinner - rice with fish and brocolli, mushroom salad, red & white wine, cheese, bread, chocolate cake and fruits.
Breakfast was very pleasing too - hams & cheese, buns, meiji yoghurt, fruits and juice.
Paris, France (4 days)
After about 17 hours of flight + transit, we touched down at 6:10am, checked in the hotel, had a quick breakfast and headed to our first destination which is the Louvre.
Haha..our first meal in Paris - the Vietnamese's pho. Yum, it was good.
This is the restaurant. Chamroeun has seriously good Vietnamese and Chinese food. In fact, we had 3 meals here.
Note: All photos in this post could not justify the beauty and magnificence of the structures as compare to seeing it with your own eyes.
The glass pyramid of Louvre which serves as the visitor's entrance
Inside the glass pyramid.
The super long queue for entrance ticket.
Louvre has two wings which are connected to each other and this photo was taken from the other wing, that's how big Louvre is.
The crowd at Louvre. Can you spot Mona Lisa on the far right?
The most famous painting in world, Mona Lisa by Leonard da Vinci behind bullet proof glass. She was the reason why I wanted to visit the Louvre. After seeing the masterpiece, I still have no idea why she is so famous and that everyone was squeezing in to take her photos including myself. I think I have squeezed for about 15 mins or so before getting to the first line. Haha
My favourite section of the museum, the decorative arts.
After Louvre, we adjourned to the Christmas market.
Christmas market at La Defense
It's sort of like our flea market but in little huts
Food at the Christmas market
Went to a mall nearby and tried this big macaron with ice-cream.

The Grand Arche, a famous landmark which is just next to the Christmas market
So, that's our first day.
Day 2: Disneyland, Paris
Seriously, if I am only limited to visiting Disneyland, the Louvre and the Eiffel Tower for this trip, I would be satisfied already.
The Sleeping Beauty castle
Some ladies get super excited when they see the latest LV collections, I get super excited when I see the Disney's mascots! I actually teared when I saw Mickey & friends during the parade. I really have no idea why I am so emotional with the mascots. Lol, and as if I am crazy, I really think that Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story looks so strikingly handsome in
The charade
My new crush - Buzz Lightyear!
Duffy!
My favourite thing to do in Disney is trying on hats
Haha..the funniest hat ever
The carousel which is everyone's favourite and I got the biggest horse. Hehe.
The very eerie Phantom Manor
Tower of Terror whereby they have this escalator that travel up and down at neck-breaking speed. When it reaches to the top, it will open up to the great view of Disneyland. However, I was so terrified and I don't think I can enjoy the view in such a way.
The giant christmas tree. It's Disneyland Paris 20th anniversary!
Well, that sum up our 2nd day which we spent entirely at Disneyland. =)
