So good to be home and back with my friends and family. Missed hubby and the kid like crazy!
Had a fabulous week abroad and the memories of that trip will be cherished forever. Anyone who knows me knows that I love to travel. With regards to Europe I've now been to England, France and Italy and plan to go to a lot more destinations in the future.
Who knew that the kid who sent away for all those travel brochures many years ago would be living her dream...
First stop - London, England
The Lobby at the Earlscourt - Ibis
My friend Lynn Outside the Hotel
Out and About in South Kensington and Gloucester
Million Dollar Flats
Windsor Castle
Me at St. Martin's on the Crypt
I snapped pics indiscriminately thinking that I could edit later. There are too many pics to share so I have added a hodgepodge of ones I think you will find interesting. I've tried to capture a taste of both cities.
The Saturday after we arrived we boarded the Eurostar for France. I remember when they were building the "Chunnel" and said that there was no way in hell I would take a train under all that water. Well guess what? Never say "never". Quite the experience.
Second Stop - Paris, France
Biker on the Streets of Paris
Paris Apartments
Hall of Mirrors at Versailles
Looking out at the Royal Gardens from the Palace of Versailles
Inside the Palace
Approaching Notre Dame Cathedral
Where We Stayed in Paris
So you see, two beautiful cities in two beautiful countries. I was overwhelmed in both places by the sheer beauty of it all. Everyone we met were so helpful and friendly. Both the English and the French locals. I would definitely make the trip again because it is impossible to see everything in such a short timespan.
So I'm off again with hubby in October for a few days in Las Vegas. My new suitcase is getting a good workout.
Hope everyone has a good week and until later...
Ciao
