Le tour eiffel. Les Invalides looks better on stormy days. Must say something about Napoleon's temperament. Les bon bons in a shop on the Rue Cler. Olive oil cans. Mom at a flowershop. French grass is smiley.
This lady had the most amazing shop. She later asked that I not take photos inside, so all you get is this tiny peek at syrup bottles in the window. This lady was one of the few shopkeepers who only spoke in French to us. It was great. We just pointed at the gateaux we wanted. My favorite chevre salad. The rules for dogs on the metro: 'If the animal is of a small size and can fit conveniently in your purse, you may bring him on.' Repair room at the Louvre. The statues didn't know I caught them doing the conga. We retraced the steps of Amelie's suitor up the steps of Montmartre.
French grafitti is much prettier. Tout est tellement plus facile avec un Mac. View from the Musee d'Orsay. Le penseur in the jardin Rodin. Loved these posters on the wall at a bookshop in Paris. Printemp's summer theme, Amelie. That purse is $300.
One of Monet's tulips. Monet's garden was filled with thousands of tulips at their peak. Monet's waterlily pond. Irises along the pond. Smartcar and yellow field. Suitable for framing. London buildings
You never know what you'll find at the Portobello Road Market in London. We had a terrible time one night finding vegetarian food in Madrid. Exhausted and grumpy, we settled on Telepizza. We were served this disgusing 'American Salad' (milky mayonaise, onions, carrots) when they were out of lettuce for the fresh salads we ordered. Me in the Jardin Botánico del Parque de Buen Retiro in Madrid. Mom in the park. Art exhibit sin titulo at the park. Flower in the park.
A toasted cheese sandwich vending machine, of course. Chief of the Barcelona buskers. Holding still for so long makes you want a cigarette. Sagrada Familia, which will never be finished. Imprint on the doors leaving Sagrada Familia. Stairs inside a spire in Sagrada Familia. Quijote grafitti in Barcelona.
Bryce says the egg-shaped candy is really tasty. Permananent fad outside the Meseu d'Art Contemporani de Barcelona. There were lots of signs like this around Europe. Grafitti on the Barcelona boardwalk. Look at how scotties make pretty balls of poop! Not sure what this sign means.
Gate detail outside the Palais de Papes in Avignon. House growing out of the rock on the pathway behind the Palais de Papes in Avignon. The famous Pont d'Avignon. My mom wouldn't stop singing the stupid song. Vinyards in Avignon. Le chat de mysterie.
