Photos from Europe 2008 - Paris

First sight that greeted us in Paris... traffic accident which jammed the expressway for miles!

The dreams of many women out there... Giant LV store along Champs-Élysées

Ahhh... the Eiffel Tower~

And underneath the tower...

A big glass globe somewhere in the middle of the tower...

One of the galleries in the Louvre

Notre Dame - Great banana and chocolate crepes all around the place!

And this is what the inside of Notre Dame looks like...

SEAFOOD PLATTER at one of the French cafes along Champs-Élysées~ NICE!

Four veterans of WWII walking off after the parade. Their combined age must have exceeded 300! Notice the 1st guy looking at MY camera while the 3rd guy was rushing off?

After the 1st guy saw me taking the last picture, he lined the others up again to pose for ME! Really touched by their gesture~ *SALUTEZ* Somehow old soldier #3 didn't look happy about posing again...

Photos from Europe 2008 - Lucerne

Welcome to Switzerland~ The land of snow-capped mountains, beautiful lakes and the aroma of cow dung...

Tram up to Mt Stanserhorn 1

Tram up to Mt Stanserhorn 2

Germany is right behind those mountains!

I'm on top of Mt Stanserhorn! *pant pant* Now for the journey down...

Say goodbye to the cows. Authentic Swiss cows are identified by the bells on their neck~ That was what the tour director told us!

Fancy a cuppa along this river in Lucerne?
