Napolean's birthplace

There's something great about visiting a place you never thought you would visit. All I ever knew about Corsica was that it was part of France and Napoleon was born there.

Graffiti in Monaco

Train just arrived at Monaco station. Easy day trip from Nice. For me, Monaco was one of those places you visit once. Yes, it's impressive looking, but if you're not a gambler or shopper, there's not much else to do.

Air Corsica

Nice Airport getting ready to go to Ajaccio, Corsica.

Bouillabaisse!

I was always told that Marseille was the place to get Bouillabaisse, but my friend and I did not plan any time there. Our train stopped there, but we did manage to good Bouillabaisse in Nice. It was great like I expected.

Nations Unies Genève

United Nations. Unlike New York, you just show up there and hope to get in if nothing "important" is going on that day. The 1st day, my friend and I were turned away, but we were able to take a later train to our next destination the following day so we could still get a tour.

Paris, je t'aime!

3rd time to Paris. Always more to discover! What made this trip different was actually seeing other cities (Lyon, Nice, Ajaccio).

I'm glad I live close enough to day trip here




Baltimore is a great city. Of course, I like D.C., NYC & Philadelphia more, but I'm glad I get to visit Baltimore at least once every year or two. They have a nice Greektown (which most cities don't have) & Little Italy. I'd like to ride their Metro some day.
