SO MUCH TO SEE, SO LITTLE TIME!!


What can I say...there are so many words I could use to describe France and my impressions of it. I think to say I am SPEACHLESS says it all lol! How is that for ironic eh. I can't begin to count how many times I found myself gaping and agog at the sights before me.


To see such history and age at every corner is amazing. The architecture...the quaintness..the sheer thought at how old so much of it all is. Our northamerica in comparison is just a youngter lol... at home our Old Quebec and Old Montreal are the oldest buildings in all of northamerica... yes, including the USA. They are dated back to 400 yrs. So when I say old here, it means REAL OLD lol. The church where Chris was babtized is aproximately 600 yrs old...YES , SIXHUNDRED YEARS OLD! LOL.


Below is a pic taken in the gardens of Monet.


GARDENS OF MONET


HMM, WONDER WHY CHRIS TOLD ME TO STAND INFRONT OF THIS ONE?


Hmm, I wonder why Chris told me to stand infront of this particular pub?!....


EIFFEL TOWER


This one speaks for itself. We got inline to go up the tower, but it was so windy that day that they closed the 3rd level, so it will be for another day.


I have taken more photos then I have ever taken, anywhere lol...most are loaded to my pc but as we have rarely had internet access, nothing has been put in the flickr acount as of yet. The one time I did try, it took for ever, for 30 pics, and when finally done, it didn't work..so be patient.


More to come as time and net access permits.
