London and Paris are beautiful at this time of year...

Our two-week vacation to Europe was fantastic...the stuff that dreams are made of. London, Paris (Right Bank), Chartre, Blois, Chenonceaux, Mont St. Michel, back to Paris (Left Bank) and finally, back to London to see "Wicked" before our return home. Our dear friends, Joe (Remy) and Emi planned the perfect itinerary...every detail was taken into consideration, down to the exact timing of the highest tides at Mont St. Michel.

While Harvey offered his insight into the trip on his blog (see side link), I'll try to get around to my own version in the next week or so--the picture version--when I wade through the gazillion photos. You see, our new digi-camera was fabulous--what a difference 2 extra megapixels makes--the Canon SD600 proved to be a tiny workhorse. When coupled with a laptop onto which we downloaded files every night, excess was sure to occur. Between the two of us, we took over 1,100 pictures and mini-videos, weighing in at a whopping 3.19 gigs. I'm afraid that I'm responsible for most of it as I get too carried away in capturing every fabulous second...every beautiful corner...every eye-catching window.

So, I'll do what I can to fill you in soon. Until then, if you're interested in seeing the pictures as they are uploaded to Snapfish, just drop me a line and I'll send you a link to the online album(s) as they're created. (So far, I've only uploaded our 60-some pictures of Chartre. I couldn't help myself--it was stunning!)

Bonne nuit, mes petits bonbons!
