From the Eiffel Tower

River cruise on the Seine

More Eiffel

Arc d'Triumph

Opera house

I saw more Ferrari...Bentley...Rolls....all driven by oil rich Arabs!

All said and done, I absolutely love England. We will go back, and next time drive north and trace my dad's side of the family.

Great pics Mike. You crammed an awful lot of sightseeing into less than a week. You must be totally "knackered" now.
See you again next time

Good trip pics. Looks like a fun time was had.
You lucked out with good weather.

Last time I was in London for 10 days, it rained the entire time.

I still had a blast, albeit a little wet during it all. lol.

That was a trip. I need to get back to London (and Paris) soon.

Thanks guys. And as a bonus, things are looking improved for my wife. The Governor recommended a State financial manager. We still have no idea what this means personally, but it is a positive step.

Love London, Paris not so much.
It is funny how Omega use pretty much the whole side of the Louvre as a billboard. When I was there, there was a 60 foot George Clooney wearing an Aqua Terra stuck there.

Fantastic trip! Is the country abuzz with the Olympics coming this summer?

I hope to be there in September.

Yeah Luke. The shops were just starting to get the tourist stuff in, the tube was advertising a special run, and construction was going on everywhere. Leichester square is still torn up....I bet it will be a race to the end to get it all done!

The short answer to that is no
There was a survey done,by the BBC i think and it seems the only people at all interested in the Olympics here are Londoners. The rest of us couldn't give a toss really
