First thing (nothing to do with travel).
I am proud to announce that I've had my 2nd photo published! Once again, someone found one of my pics on flickr, and asked to use it. It's in the Schmap!! guide - a free guide for cities. A photo I took on Lake Harriet was selected:

Here's the original on flickr:

BTW - if you're interested, here's the first pic of mine that got used (I got $50 for this photo) :-)

Ok - back to travel stuff.
Mont St-Michel was nice. I spent the day there, and had a good time. I toured the Abby, went to a couple museums on the island (it's an island when the tide is in, which it wasn't), and walked around. But, one day was enough - definitely not enough stuff to spend more than one day there.
This morning I took the train back to Paris. Hoping to get an overnight train down to Carcassonne - that wasn't in the cards. So, I got a train to Tours France - right in the Loire Valley. I'll spend a day or 2 here, and then head to Carcassonne (trains permitting).
I haven't done anything in Tours yet. As I walked around this evening, I had several moments where I thought something was a sign for a tourism office. Then I realized it was just the town's name: Tours. :-)

HelloooooOoo CB.
ReplyDeleteIt's me, Quick. Thank you for your postcard, I never get any mail. It smells really good. I promise I won't even chew it up or anything.
This weekend I met some other dogs when I took some friends camping. I got to wear my tough-looking new harness and smell lots of stuff. I have a newfound liking of charcoal. It's so tasty! I tried to save you some but Jon & ReAnn made me spit it out. How come the only thing they let me eat is dog food and carrots?
I mostly hung out in Jon's lap because there was this other "puppy" there named Mason. He tried to treat me like I used to treat Trevor (and you know what that means), but I was bigger than him so I only let him for a little bit. J wouldn't let me sit in his lap the whole way back (even though I tried), but he seemed to like me okay. He said he would let me next time, though.. I can't wait to see him again!!
I am happy you are having a nice trip. I have never been on a train before, is it fun?
When you get back I will show you this cool trick I can do involving my tail and a headlamp.
Quick ~(o¥o)~
A new job in the works?? Great pics!
