Paris = Class, especially the Eifful Tower.

Durham is a beautiful little city.

Tays, spend a weekend in Newcastle (and Liverpool) if you can, they are fantastic.

I remember walking over that Ha'penny bridge in Dublin, on the way to Temple Bar and more drinks.

How did I miss this?!

Great pics Tayser! What area did you stay in the second time around in Paris? You got a clear day up the Eiffel Tower as well. I could barely see Montmartre when I was up there. I'm really regretting not going up Montparnasse.

5th Arrondissement.

One street back from Blvd St. Germain, bout 1km to the east of where we stayed in April. Same type of place too.

and yes Montparnasse = :banana2:
