Can you say DOUBLE DECKER BUS!
May 26, 2015 in England ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C
We went on a double decker bus tour Tuesday and it was sooooo cool. We had seen a lot of things but this tour was so nice and told us so many things about the history and culture of London(oddly enough it was mostly royals, plagues and fires)?? here are some sweet pictures I got from the tip top of the bus!Read more
I have been there back in 2006, glad you are having fun

May 30, 2015 in France ⋅ ⛅ 16 °C
Another beautiful day in lovely Paris! Saw a few more sights today including the arc de Triomphe and a few other French buildings. Ate DELICIOUS food with great company. So far France has been a lot of fun! So glad our new friend Ingrid has been so hospitable and kind and taken us everywhere. Jehovah's people are so amazing. Loving to see that international brotherhood in the works!Read more

The Lourve pt 2
June 1, 2015 in France ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C
More pictures from inside the famous Lourve. The weather outside was amazing! Perfect for taking pictures from inside the building. And I saw the Mona Lisa! It was pretty small and had a million people waiting to take a picture. I snapped that selfie with Lisa cuz she thought it would be a good idea ?? also got pictures of ceiling paintings that were amazing!Read more
Were you shocked to see how small the Mona Lisa is? I know I was! Lynette
