Trafalgar Tour

Before we go any further into the trip around England I will put up the photo's and some of the stories from the bus trip. The trip took us from Rome, Florence, Venice and then into Austria, Switzerland and across France into Paris, over the puddle on the ferry and into London.

Rome


Venice

Grand Canal Venice Florian's cafe on San Marco Square

San Marco Basilica

Doges palace

Vienna

St Stephen's Cathedral


Saltzburg




Switzerland

Our bus and my favourite photo


Went to a farm and had apple pie, yodelling and whipcracking





The whole bus group was taken on two horse drawn carts through three Swiss villages


Some of the scenery around the villages

Innsbruck


The painted buildings were fascinating and the golden balcony is spectacular










Paris
A few photo's taken at the Louvre. Recreation of the original Louvre Palace

All looks calm as we approach the Arc di Triomphe, but the traffic was very chaotic.
We also ate snails and frogs legs while we were here.

Palace of Versailles was visited




























Then we headed for London
























Yes we took the children to a matinee performance of the Lion King at the Lyceum theatre.






We stayed in Picadilly Circus, just around the corner from theatre land.



For more information about what we did in London, check In London or London Photos or Rainforest Cafe or Apartment in London

Aha! So that's why you had to post my toothpaste back from England - you'd got me a 13th dolls house sa well! Mondo, you shouldn't have - and a model Louvre Palace to boot!
