Paris Trip Day 2 29 Mar 06

Finally, the weather improved and I managed to trot down to the Trocadero to snap the Eiffel Tower. It was getting a little late in the day so I didn't venture down to the tower site itself or the gardens behind. Nevertheless, was happy that finally... after som many attempts this winter season to take decent photos in Europe the sun came out.

Earlier that day I went down to the Musee de la'air at La Bourget to take view all the aviation artifacts and displays. Its really quite an amazing collection of stuff right from the time people tried to get off the ground till the present day.

Overall a very well spent day... The pictures here are of course just a few from the many taken that day. The full set can be found on my Flickr site... as usual...

Happy viewing.

Paris Trip Day 1 28 Mar 06

Finally another trip to Paris when the weather isn't too cold. Decided to take the camera for a walk to see the sites, but unfortunately the weather wasn't very cooperative as the rain kept coming and going with very little sunshine. Nevertheless I managed to take a few shots and here are some them. There are a few more on my Flickr site. Was hoping to make it as far as the Trocadero and the Eiffel Tower to update my pics (the previous shots were taken with a P&S Canon) but unfortunately as the rain got heavier I had to junk that idea.

Hopefully Day 2 will be more successful. I'm supposed to go visit the Aviation Museum which is supposed to be quite good.

Stay tuned for more pictures...
