Street Rockers

Although Camden Town in London may be more touristy than Leicester Square, it can be a fun place. Take these British Rockabilly/Punk guys just rocking out on the street corner! Much cooler than those guys who paint themselves silver and pretend to be robots.

Dublin Fire Brigade

DO NOT set off the fire alarm at restaurants in Dublin for 2 reasons: the fire alarm goes off OUTSIDE the restaurant, not inside, and only the “fire brigade” can turn it off, meaning they have to come even if there has been no fire.

Killiney Beach

We stayed with friends (Bono is their neighbor) for one night in Killiney, a 30 min train ride outside of Dublin. Gorgeous there! The beach was beautiful, yet VERY cold.

Grand Place

The Grand Place (Brussels) is gorgeous at dusk and night. The church puts on a light show @ 10pm with music. Definately not one to miss.

Highland Bull

My sister lives 10 min. outside Amsterdam, and although Amsterdam is great, you have to get out of the city! All the small towns are so beautiful with fairy tale cottage houses. We went walking through the forest behind her house, only to discover this field of wild Highland Bulls.

Thong Tightrope Man

This guy was great! I saw him 3 years ago in Amsterdam in the Leidsplein (spelling?) on a Friday night.

Antwerp

A beautiful city!

Gouda Cheese Market

For another side of the Netherlands, head to Gouda (where the cheese is made, but pronounced “how-dah”) to the cheese market. It’s the old Holland that you don’t get in Amsterdam.

Evening Picnic on the Bridge

Ah, the cheese tasted as stinky as it smelled.

Sacre Coeur

Beautiful at dusk and night. Montmartre offers beautifuls of Paris too.

Catacombs

The catacombs in Paris are the weirdest, best 3.50 euro you can spend!

St. Raphael, the south of France

the French Riviera is probably the most beautiful place I have ever been.

Mass of Jellyfish

Millions of jellyfish floated through the Mediterranean while we were there, making the water not OK to swim in.
