My...whoops...OUR trip to Europe.

[skahound]

Words can't describe my feelings about my first trip to Europe. As most of you know we did London, Paris, Rome, Venice, and Amsterdam all over a course of about 2 weeks. None of the pictures I've seen nor the books I've read can do any of the cities justice. I'll post some of my favorite pics from each city in separate posts in the order in which we visited them. I should have some pics from the wedding very shortly and I'll post them as soon as I do. I couldn't have asked for a more beautiful ceremony or a more breathtaking bride.

LONDON:

Have you seen him?

Re: My...whoops...OUR trip to Europe.

By far I had the most fun in Paris. I can't wait to go back; but only after I learn to speak French fluently. I'm looking into a couple of classes for that as we speak. London was a lot of fun as well. Rome was just mind blowing. Venice was something that was definitely nice to see, but that will be the last time I go. It's turned into a bit of Disney World there. Full of t-shirt stands and immigrants selling fake handbags, etc. A few too many tourists for my taste.

Thanks for all of the kind words. We're just awaiting the wedding photographer to get back to us with the portfolio he's put together and then I'll have some more to share.
