One more

Ok, so one more post tonight. I decided to post a few more pictures that didn't really fit anywhere else. One album is a compilation of a bunch of the signs we saw around France... some were pretty funny! The second album is a compilation of bridge pictures.

First Day in Europe

Hello again! Ok, here's what I'll try to do and see how it goes. I'll put some slideshows and links in here to some photos from the first day in Europe. These pictures cover Paris mainly. It's our first day there and we are taking pictures of everything... as I start posting more pictures, you'll notice we didn't take as many of everything and we had more with us in them. When I get a chance I'll publish some more.

Here's the first album. You can click on the bottom right to go to the actual album on Picasa and see the pictures larger. You can see the captions of the pictures on this slideshow by clicking the little caption button at the bottom. And in case you don't have flash... a simple link to the album is down there, too:


Begin Here


Our first stop in Paris was the Louvre:

After the Louvre, we walked to the Notre Dame Cathedral... pictures from the walk kind of give you an idea of what Paris is like around the river:

And we arrive at Notre Dame!

We had some time to look around the area near Notre Dame because we decided not to wait in line to go inside. We wandered around back, checked out the street performers and found the Holocaust memorial.

And here's our first evening in Paris... This is plenty of information and pictures to absorb for now. I'll post more another day... hope everyone is doing great!



AAA6 First Evening in Paris

Welcome!

Hello everyone. I thought I'd try this out a bit. I probably won't add stuff too often, but I thought it might be a good way to share pictures (like the ones from Europe) without it being too overwhelming and boring. So let's see how it goes!
