There are a few moments in life when I’ve thought to myself, remember this. Remember this moment, remember this feeling, remember this day. It’s as though I am putting a bookmark in my memory. This perfect spring day in Paris was one of those days.
We had just checked into our Sofitel hotel by the Arc de Triomphe and had leisurely walked across the bridge toward to the Eiffel Tower. The cherry blossoms were just beginning to bloom, the sun was warm on my face and the Eiffel Tower was standing tall above the other limestone buildings. It was one of those magical moments that felt as though we had just stepped into a scene from a movie. Paris in the spring is what dreams are made of.
I am now back in New York City where our days are filled with fewer baguettes and a lot more rain. While my heart is longing to jump back to this perfect Parisian day, I’m reminiscing to my bookmarked memory and clinging to the cliché that April showers bring May flowers. Sometimes I need the reminder that it’s the rainy days that make the perfect days just a little sweeter.

These pictures are incredible!!!!! And I totally do that. One of my favorite bookmarked memories was a stunning sunset at the beach. There wasn’t anything special about it, but I just remember feeling so happy and content in that moment. :)
I’ve always wanted to go to Paris. It looks so stunning. Love these photos too!
Paris totally stole my heart. I cannot wait to go back. Look at those cherry blossoms!
Ah! It’s so stunning! I love it all. Everything looks so much more in bloom for you than the few weeks before I was there. Ugh! I just want to go back!
