There were also several groups who took advantage of the gorgeous setting outside the Musée du Louvre for a golden-hour photo shoot. Here is what AJ, Jubbittat, and Vivian had to say and share:

"Je suis allée à l’extérieur du Musée du Louvre avec deux amies, Vivian et AJ. Nous avons pris des photos essayant simultanément à débouchées nos galeries dans nos portables. Nous avons un bon moment en tout."

Some groups spent their last Sunday going out to brunch. Riley and friends went to Madame Pampa on the frequented Rue du Montparnasse, while Samantha and friends ate at Carette just across from Trocadéro!
