After a week of moving around to see family (from France to England to Scotland and back to France), we finally settled in for four days in Paris. I had it in my head that the honeymoon would not actually start until we were on the banks of the Seine with our feet dangling over the water.

Though Katy and I were quite thorough in our efforts to name this bridge after ourselves, the city of Paris has been slow to adopt the change.
