Sorry for the delay in posts — we are in Paris and have been nonstop with activities, museums, steps, and eating! The best! Anyways, I am now no longer jet lagged, no longer every second packed, and so I am baaaaaack. One highlight of the past week was a trip to Giverny, where Monet lived and painted. In all the years I have spent coming to Paris, I have never ever been to Giverny before. And it did not disappoint! Not only that, it exceeded expectations, and I highly suggest that everyone make a trip to Giverny if you have not yet been.
Every morning on our way out the door, we took our photos and did OOTD (outfits of the day) where we told each other our outfits.
Located an hour away, it is an easy train ride or uber.
Small cute town, love all the greenery and how it felt like you were very much in the country, and not so close to Paris.
The gardens! So so so so beautiful.
My bootie baby and the gardens.
Flowers in bloom — therefore, so many butterflies and bees and chirping.
The famous bridges that Monet painted.
Lily pads and bridges.
Me and my girl.
More flowers.
Monet’s house.
Loved all the vibrant colors — inside and outside of the house.
Doors were so beautiful.
The kitchen floor.
We planned our trip to Giverny because we had lined up the following day to go see museums with a guide — one being L’Orangerie where Monet’s 8 Lily Pad murals were shown. It was the perfect trip to do right before the museums, as it made more sense to the girls, and to see how it impacted Monet’s life and art.
The lily pad paintings in person.
No matter how many times I see it, always blown away.
Highly highly recommend if you do find yourself in Paris, to go to Giverny, and if not, hope you enjoyed these photos!
