Gezgin I'm always amazed at how on earth they paint such detail on the ceilings. Must have been hard on the arms.
Gezgin We're relating to the crowd issue. Hard work at times as we kiwis like our space!
Gezgin We feel that the big tourist spots in Britain do it better for crowds - all going one way etc and by the crown jewels a moving platform that kept everyone moving. At the Mono Lisa people were just not moving. Yip we aren't used to dodging people on the footpath etc everywhere you go. No wonder visitors to nz love it so much.

Gezgin A amazing place filled with such history good times bad time sad times. Lovely photos of Diana especially with her boys and then the lovely picture of the boys together it would be so nice if they could make up, life is far too short.
Gezgin Absolutely 🥰 I thought 💭exactly the same while looking. Diana would be devastated at the rift! 😢😢😢 tyey would know this and will make up one day! she'd also be proud Harry has made a different life for himself too! so, there would be conflicts in her mind too. But she would want her boys to be friends. pS: youre up ⏰ late!

Still Life, 1993-2000. Ai collected thousands of Stone Age tools from flea markets--axe-heads, chisels, knives and spindle whorls. We tend to think of these as precious because of their age, but they are just commonplace examples of what was needed for everyday survival.
