Great Travels and Pictures!
Your trip to France and Belgium sounds fantastic - very interesting. You and your new camera are taking outstanding pictures - I could almost eat the waffles off the page. Your "Monet" pictures could easily be framed and sold. We are impressed that you keep the world traveling going!
