Honeymoon in Paris: Jardin du Luxembourg

bonjour et bonjour! As my Honeymoon in Paris segment winds down (there's one more post!), I've found myself reminiscing more than ever about our trip to France. I've got the travel bug so bad, and Garrison and I are already dreaming of where we should go next. If you have any location suggestions in or out of the U.S., comment them below! I'd love to read about the places you love the most.

We visited Notre Dame and Jardin du Luxembourg in the same day, walking from our apartment near the Bastille to Ile de Paris (not super far) and stopping for plenty of photos along the way. 

Notre Dame is massive, and--like most of the architecture in France--full of detail. The faces of saints are carved into the front of the church, and it sits right along the River Seine. There are little cafes all around it, full of people (mostly tourists) chatting and eating baguettes.
