Five days in Paris, France

I am so excited! I can't even explain to you how excited I am for 11 January. I'm sure this is how Sue Heck feels about everything she tries in her life!! For real!!

On 11 January we leave sunny South Africa to embark on an adventure! First stop - Dubai, for a couple of hours, and then PARIS! I'm sure you know by now that this is at the top of my holiday bucketlist!!

We'll be in Paris for 5 days and I want to see and do AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE!
Since it'll be winter when we're there we won't be going to Disneyland, and since it's January we won't be able to go right to the top of the Eiffle Tower due to maintenance.


Anyway, we'll be staying in the Montmartre district and this is what we have planned so far, were not too big on museums so we only plan on going to a few:
Eiffle Tower - of course!
Seine River Cruise
Champ de Mars
Rodin Museum Gardens
Hotel des Invalides
Alexander Bridge
Place de la Concorde
Champs Elysees
Arc de Triomphe
Lourve Museum
Tuileries Gardens
National Opera House
Montparnasse Cemetery
Cluny Museum
Sacre Coeur Basilica
Notre Dame
The Catacombs
Latin Quarter
Luxembourg Gardens
St Germain des Pres
Eat macaroons at Laduree
Definitely eating a nutella crepe
A day trip to Versailles Gardens and Hall of mirrors

Did we miss anything? Do you have any tips or hidden gems that we have to visit?

My spring bucket list...#Blogtober14 Day 5


So I missed Day 4 - My favourite photo I've posted on Instagram, its only because we had an awesome bachelorette weekend for a friend of mine. As it goes with bachelorettes, we had very little sleep and tons of fun, it started on Friday night at 7:30pm and ended this morning at about 11!! I'm finished, but it was great and well worth it!!

This is my favourite instapic, it's of our gorgeous kitty, Arya, we got her in May and this photo was taken about a month after we got her, she has such character and is so cute! We love her to bits!! You can follow me in Instagram here.

Moving along, since "Fall" has already come and gone in SA, I have decided to do a Spring bucket list, I'm keeping it short and realistic because Spring is already 1 third gone and I'm a busy lady!

So here it is:
1. Plant flowers in our garden - our plants had a rough winter!
2. Have a picnic that doesn't consist of only Woolies foods.
3. Make and fly a kite - I haven't flown a kite in years!
4. Take the Hartebeespoort Cableway.
5. Hike in the Magaliesburg/Drakensburg mountains.
6. Complete the Honeydew A-maze-ing mazes.
7. Go to a Drive-in movie @ Menlyn Park - Grease style!
8. Kiss in the rain.
9. Rent some bicycles and find a park to ride around in.
10. Pick flowers and fill a vase with them.

I will keep you guys up to date as I cross off the items on the Spring bucket list! It's definitely going to be a busy season!! What is your Fall/Spring bucket list??
