The Louvre, Notre Dame, Catacombs, and All That Jazz! (and of course the Eiffel tower)

USA | Wednesday, 17 Feb 2010 | Views [1277] | Comments [6]

Paris is an old-fashioned city.  It prides itself on the gleaming buildings that make it what it is, all off-white stone and iron.  It is so proud, in fact, that when a modern-looking sky scraper was put up, all glass and corners, there came to pass ... Read more >

While You Were Still in the US, we were wandering Madrid.

USA | Monday, 8 Feb 2010 | Views [338] | Comments [4]
