Easter long weekend BJ and I planned a trip to Paris by taking the Eurostar early in the morning. We had to get to Waterloo station for the train at 7am from Camden. The only bus available at that hour took us to the Strand and so we had to walk to the train station by crossing the Waterloo Bridge.

This was taken from Waterloo Bridge before sunrise.

Arrived in Paris...

One-day excursion to this small ancient ruin outside of Rome.
