Eurotrip Day 2 – London

Saturday, May 30th, 2009 :: 2:26 am

First stop, London! This is the first of three days we spent in London. Major stops include St. Paul Cathedral, Bank Museum, Hyde Park, and Harrods Department Store.

Arriving bright and early in the airport, we took the Tube (what they call the metro) from Heathrow Airport right to the city centre, King’s Cross.

Eurotrip Day 1 – Flight

Thursday, May 28th, 2009 :: 5:36 pm

As you probably know I’ve been back for about a week from my highly anticipated 24 day Eurotrip! So far I’ve gone through about half the photos on the trip, deleting duplicates, blurry images, etc. I will have to delete as I go along later on this month.

How was it? Summing it up in one word: Great! It’s probably what I imagined it to be – and maybe even a bit more. Ate escargot, pizza, gelato, conversed with locals, jumped in front of the Eiffel Tower, and a whole load of other things.
I’m not much of a writer myself, but hopefully you can follow the small captions that I have above the photos.
Critique and comments very much welcome! I’d be glad to answer any questions about the trip! :-D

A little photo stat:

Shutter clicks (going by image number): 11109
Images kept (so far): 9921 (about 90% rate)
Average photos/day: 463
Storage used: 114GB (excluding videos)
