A Picture is Worth Thousand Words

A picture is worth a thousand words. 38 pictures = 38,000 words worth of blog posts, which we are currently typing. Yes, we know we've been slacking on those, but we'll post some text in the next day or two. For now, enjoy this cross-section of photos of our adventures in Geneva, :Paris, and Amsterdam.

We're leaving England in 12 hours, but England deserves a post of it's own (you'll see why when that particular post goes up). Off to Berlin tomorrow...you'll hear more shortly!

The Swiss Alps

Reunited!

On the chairlift en route to France...no big deal.

Why get a fancy wine bucket when all you need is a plastic bag and cold water?

Just hangin' out in the Alps!


Our route for the day...Switzerland, France, then back to Switzerland - all by chairlift!

Fondue!

Geneva

More Geneva

Geneva must be looking really beautiful right now, but what isn't beautiful is the fact that it's the 3rd most expensive city in the world. Our wallets hurt.

No caption necessary.

Cruising around Lake Geneva

Rick Steves' Guide to Europe, a piece of paper, and a Coke bottle filled with generic white whine - all you need to get ready for Paris!

In front of Notre Dame Cathedral

That thing from the Da Vinci Code...apparently there's some art nearby as well.

Mona Lisa...

...and all her adoring fans!


Not a bad view.

View of Champs Elysees from atop the Arc de Triomphe.

There goes the 3 Euro ice cream.

Us with LL Cool H!

France's answer to Zoloti Vorota. Kyiv's is better.

View from our balcony. Definitely not the view from the palace at Versailles.

Generic Canadian Whiskey, yum!

The Leaning Tower of Eiffel. Oops.

View from the Eiffel Tower.


Beautiful!

Intersection where Symon Petliura was shot. Black and red logo for the store on the corner. Coincidence?

Amsterdam - more canals than Venice!

If Zenon made sushi, this is what it would be called.

Zenon's worldwide Subway tour continues!

More of lovely Amsterdam

Our definition of being "cultured."

More accordions!

Our group in Amsterdam. Besides the weather, it was a fun few days!
