If you’ve been following my vacation posts the past few weeks, you’ve gotten a sense for how much we tried to do while we were in London and Paris. If I had it to do all over (and I had the time to do it), I would spend a week in each location so I could fully appreciate each city. Not only were my feet incredibly tired from all the walking, but we really didn’t have a chance to see places like the Eiffel Tower at night (I guess we could have the night before, but we were exhausted). Anyways, as you might imagine…the Eiffel Tower had a pretty long line. It appeared as...

A few weeks ago, I mentioned that it would take me a month to get through all of my photos. I was joking when I said that, but I still have more photos to share from our second day in Paris (beyond today)…and we haven’t even gotten to the Eiffel Tower. As a result, I’m barely picking up my camera to take new photos…but I’m starting to think more and more about what to do beyond my blog postings.

Each of the three French kings who lived there until the French Revolution added improvements to make...

Day 3 in London apparently produced a lot of photo opportunities (considering I’ve been posting photos from it all week). If you’ve missed any of my previous vacation posts, click HERE – we left off at The London Eye. Anyways…after grabbing a bite to eat at Wagamama, we took a taxi to The British Museum. Miles was insistent on seeing the Mummy exhibit one more time. I have to admit that it was pretty cool. Unfortunately most of my photos are pretty dark (even with a high ISO setting). I’m kinda curious about what Miles was able to capture with his camera...
