The Grizzle makes the trek across the ocean for a weekend in Europe. Hilarity ensues…

Super Euro Trip

Blake — Thu, 13 Dec 2007 00:42:07 +0000

Tonight I stumbled across the blog we put together when we were backpacking all over Europe two years ago. We hit 15 cities in 30 days… obviously too much, but we got to see a lot. Since then, I’m much more likely to go to only one (and max 2) places on a vacation. Turbo tourism is fun, but I think the best part of Europe is when you’re staying in one place and meeting people.

Photos: Latest Trip to Paris

The photo above has received more comments and views than any other picture I have ever put on Flickr, so I thought that I should post it here. What do you think? I’m a big fan of night photography like this. I’ll post more of an update soon. I’m in London this weekend, and I’m typing on a French keyboard – which is difficult…

Here are the rest of the Paris photos from my most recent visit:

O$LO, Norway

Oslo, Norway…where a McDonald’s combo meal will cost you $18 USD and even the airport looks like a ski lodge.

Paris last week… UK this week

Here are a few pics from my trip last week to Paris (more, as usual, on Flickr):

Tomorrow is a holiday here, and I’m heading to Manchester, England for the night. Then I have two days of work in Leeds, England on Tuesday and Wednesday. So when I’m not pent up in an office or riding on a train, I’ll be trying to see these two cities. This is my first time to England…

I know what you’re thinking…

I know this looks pretty sad… don’t worry though, I’m OK. Malnourished, but OK.
