arkwright Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 Two reasons for posting this, but most importantly its letting you know I probably won`t post as much (if at all) for the next six days, as in about three hours I am catching the Eurostar to Paris. I`m very excited, as its the first time I`ve been away with the boyfriend - he`s there already and picking me up. The only thing is, by the time I get there it`ll be almost midnight. Basically, au revoir TDN :) complicatedwishes and Spritzie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good thinking; when I get back I could post some of the pictures I take on this board. And aye, it is a vacation. One in which I do a lot of art, but one nonetheless.

arkwright Posted August 19, 2012 Author Share Posted August 19, 2012 Thank you for all the nice messages; I just got back. I had an amazing time! Truly did so. We did everything. By everything I mean the Louvre, Montmartre, Pere Lachaise, Army Museum (that was more the boyfriend's idea, and we ended up six hours in there - SIX HOURS!) ... Twas wonderful. I have photographs and all, but quite too many to upload, but here are a few of my favourites because I promised to upload some. This was at Napoleon's tomb. The boyf such a history boffin insisted on coming here ... Twice! And this one made me laugh so much because here he is doing a crazy stare next to Napoleon's coat. Versailles, for you all to see. The place was massive. The Sacre-Coeur, from outside. Very lovely and cool inside, made such a change from the 30 odd degrees outside. And finally another interesting frescoe. They were everywhere, seriously. Spritzie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Welcome back! :D Those pictures are gorgeous. It looks like there was a lot of amazing things to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
passiflora Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Wow, nice pictures! Looks like you had a good time. I went to France once but never got to see Versailles - so jealous! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arkwright Posted August 19, 2012 Author Share Posted August 19, 2012 Wow, nice pictures! Looks like you had a good time. I went to France once but never got to see Versailles - so jealous! :D In my opinion, whilst Versailles was beautiful and all - it was very, very touristy. Had to queue for about an hour to even get in - and then once in all the rooms were so packed one could hardly see a thing. This would be my only criticism, its a shame when amazing places get like that. But definitely if you go back, take a visit there. Maybe go in the morning when its less crowded though ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
