CHILDHOOD PROMISE/WISH
Did you ever make a promise/wish to yourself before when you're still young? If you'll ask me, then my answer is a big yes.
I can't forget that day after seeing the picture and reading the article of the Eiffel Tower in Paris. I said to myself "one day, I will be seeing this in personal." And of course after saying that I realized it's impossible.
(Fast forward)
And whoever thought that promise I made 10 years ago just happened.
Big YES!!! Last August this year (2015) I do treat myself (actually a birthday gift for myself) a vacation to the City of Light, Paris, France!! :) :) :)
(By the way I am with my cousin and friend)
SACRE COEUR BASILICA (Basilica of the Sacred Heart)
To start our day, we visited first the Sacre Coeur Basilica (Basilica of the Sacred Heart) which I believe is located in the highest point of the City because from there you can see almost the entire city. I will say the view was so perfect ( I can imagine the view during the night when all the lights are turned on waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa )
We are so lucky and blessed enough to enter in the Basilica to light a candle and offer some prayers.

We also went to Louvre Pyramid, Notre Dame, Arc of Triumph and Grand Palace but we didn't able to get inside ( too many tourist, we don't have enough time to wait ).
LOVE LOCK BRIDGE
While walking along that Bridge, while seeing those padlocks, I just can't stop myself from smiling. I was imagining those lovers who locked their hearts in that bridge. Those sweet messages written on the padlocks, It simply melts my heart.

EIFFEL TOWER
And to our last stop.
The moment I saw the tower the feeling was so unexplainable. Everything is a blank. My eyes were focused to that thing. I can't believe I am looking at the real tower not a photo anymore. I am so happy that all I did is smile and take a photo, of course I can't miss that chance.
We stayed there until the bronze tower was covered with lights. It was so beautiful, I felt so in love on that moment specially when the one minute light show (don't know the exact term) started. That was so perfect. So romantic. Everything was worth it.
