Floating light glimpse of France Italy (2) the Rome Italy

Yu-Yu's "follow the footsteps of series in this passage, I think Xu: human life is composed by time and space, time, no matter how long, the hundred-year-old, extend the room is not big, but spaces, expansion of the range can be very poor, so drop the quality of life, to a large extent, and space-related.

For the past two years, more and more tourist visits, our winter wardrobe is relatively complete, and does not require special purchase anything, only European hotel in open water bottle we have not used, it is winter, the travel agency Miss Sun alerts, I specifically went to purchase the most Jusco small boil a kettle and a 24-hour warm large vacuum flask 2, we are a family of a proof of the truth really is on the road.

However, not all hotels are not opened bottle, in France, two-night stay at the HOLIDAY INN hotel is available on the kettle, Chinese tourists stay rate is high?, convenient to shopping, I also do homework in advance, to Italy and France's well-known cosmetics brand origin listed listed prepared! is winter clothes takes place, who let me full of herself, this is a very important part of the tourism, dressed beautiful, mood before us! we sa one a big trolley, half-full, you can put stuff back, proved this wise.

Home has a Canon 5DMARK2, a Casio card machine, I went to the new specialized in Matera to Hong Kong before you buy, but the comparison with Canon after finding it is not enough-saturation of color, photographing out photos rather than seeing the beauty of the total, happened to see photography magazine in comparison of Canon G11 and S90, careful comparisons, I decided it chose the S90, G11 is certainly good, but the size and volume of crime than the S90 is doubled my magic rabbit has a lot more, buy a S90 a supplementary, more action, catch the day before departure, friends in Hong Kong bought a price lower than that of Zhuhai, nearly 1000.

This Casio to daughter, happy, one person, one machine, this time my S90 can play a greater role, and magic rabbit LG used much, much better photos I have taken the S90, color saturation is indeed better, especially on the yellow more sensitive.

Well, everything, LET ' S GO!

Italy and France than late whole 7 hours.

Off the map can be discerned, we design the entire trip was first to the southernmost attractions--Rome, then take the direction of large she had been killed in the North to the extreme north of attractions — Paris.

(Hong Kong Airport, 34, boarding gate, is this, and so on, a lot of time to kill)

(Niang both a pendulum, and Oh, POSS, Ah, international flights, we want to nearly 4 hours ahead of time to the airport, think about it, but fortunately there is a departure of passion support AH)

(Air France top to come home, full of old boy, a young guy, I have enough, after all, sorry again at it with cameras, Khan Khan)

Seat no imagination of spacious, all full, wanted to find a vacant seat sow happy dream, are faithfully stay in their seats, each passenger has a screen of a Chair, you can choose to listen to music, watching DVDs, play games, etc., to not take 12 hours, light sleep also insist on not Oh.

Thought that Chinese food is famous South beauty should very delicious food, what an improvement, whole, not in Sichuan cuisine, in the West, the West does not really afraid to flattered. Well, let's do next time.

Sleep, 12 points, and how a bad spirits, seat space is too small, turn left, turn right, leaned, all positions are used up, always find a comfortable body posture, give me hard.

Results just to sleep, it was a good air, turbulence, duration also long, but all the entertainment are foreign language, you can choose ENGLISH or FRENCH, it's all the same to me, the whole is twittering, unfortunately, return when I found that I can play cards with my cell phone in exactly the same, that is way down the line.

D2: 15 February (Monday), Paris, Rome weather: cloudy occasional drizzle

Follow the instructions on the screen to show that the aircraft took off from Hong Kong, Beijing--Urumqi--Moscow-Paris, full 10200 km, flying is a land of all.

It's so farWanli Oh.

Because of the time difference, our flights have been through the night, when you reach the CDG is local time 5: 40 pm (Beijing time 12: 40), has been the security screeners, Paris is very strict, to solutions for belt, drag-and-boots.

Security check out away from the departure time 9: 45 am still early, on an airplane didn't eat well (not accustomed, breakfast was cold), and go to sleep a bit, bingwu pizza General, two cubes with a bottle of mineral water, 20 to Europe, synthesis of RMB always uncomfortable, so that a Europe is never old conversion.

(Lounge tempting dessert, not cheap)

(Aircraft, snowy cold of sprawing Alps)

(Charles de Gaulle airport Nice France female high school students, we take the same flight, was not to swim in?)

12: 30 we arrive in Rome, attended without rest, go directly to the State.

Local to accompany already waiting there. Grand Barra we directly go to the ancient luomadoushouchang.

Many people have said that ROMA reversed is Latin for "AMOR" – love, there are those who say: glory belongs to Greece, the great belonging to Rome.

Rome has some 2000 years of history, when we often hear Rome wasn't built in a day, all roads lead to Rome ' sayings. The entire old and new city of Rome is divided into two parts, the old city, new city residence. The old city has been included in the world cultural heritage;. And saved quite intact, this whole Europe do have very forward-looking, our national awareness or late, but better late than never enlightenment.

The most ancient Rome Luomadoushouchang, renowned monuments and landmarks of Rome, was built in the year 69-82, oval, high 57 meters, a total of 4 floors above and below, the following 3 layer for the walk-through, built by the marble blocks, gate 76 fan, can accommodate 8 000 people, the entire building is ship-shape.

The beast's back bucket from the North Gate entrance entry exit from the South, the winner came out. Gladiatorial beasts, by people and people and between people, cruel bloody until a.d. 405, Mahoney-the great emperor ordered annulled, but unfortunately in the Renaissance, many wall stones are removed to build churches and bridges. So, now there is the bucket of veterinary field of incompleteness of beauty.

(BC field location)

Not far away is the triumphal arch of Constantine, Rome and many of the largest in the Arc de Triomphe, Paris Arc de Triomphe earlier than 300 years.

At that time, to commemorate the Great Emperor Constantine in Roman mill Fabio bridge built over Nero tyrant. Is very perfect Arc de Triomphe is saved.

(You can still see that the shadow of mighty and splendid)

Then, of course, to the famous wishing pool, this is called the Trevi fountain.

To Rome before let his daughter downloaded classic "Roman holiday", Audrey Hepburn beauty still so brilliant that you can follow these great buildings, liufangqiangu par, but unfortunately it did not see the truth of the mouth.

It is said that as long as with his back to the fountain, from shoulder throw a coin into the fountain, but must use right hand through the left atrium lost over left shoulder is unheard, and coins are their own, borrow.

Of course you want to make a wish to stay with before the Pro got off tour has repeatedly reminded us of a third factor in Oh, Rome is the low level of thieves, not replay: Oh, it seems, to Italy we also learn to tell the thief wits? There are also, Italy's most famous ice cream, where good! we have long time hope of delicious ice cream, it is better to accompany, she led us to directly, if you face the wishing pool, Plaza on the right hand side is the first House. Be sure not to Miss!

The wishing pool like a theatre stage, baroque sculpture full comic effect, in the middle of the sea and the two sides of the water God modeling are very classical, Poseidon Palace above the four girls represent winter.

(People, basically you are not supporting photos, of course, we all made according to the rules)

The diary of Europe-Lyon

August 6, 2008 clear to cloudy

Yesterday at the railway station to the smooth and received my daughter met. thus follow the daughter out of the subway to the station. a car to a called "Costa Al chayla" platform off. it is the city of Lyon in the northeastern corner of a civilian residential areas. daughter rental of apartment lived three foreign students in addition to the room is only available, kitchen, living room and bathroom are shared. because the layout is reasonable, but didn't find any inconvenience.

At home never Cook's daughter, away from home for many years, he will do some food, I was sleepy, put down your luggage can not sleep when she went to supper. I do not know how long a, smell the kitchen smell of curry beef with overflow, would like to open eyes, but I still can't doze. then stalls wake up, a look at the table on the wrist, is 2 a.m.!

This is the Jet lag. get it so gently-cannot be called bed, is up a floor shops. (

August season, here actually is not hot, underground pad is Simmons, cover a thin is no mosquitoes, also without a mosquito net.) I opened the flashlight---fear frightened daughter---clothing juanpugai, grooming bi, or too early and open notebooks.-is the daughter dropped the failing domestic took away the old computer, her new PC version, will not be used, it is also afraid mistake her baby papers or information get lost, that's not a joke, so I would not dare use. lucky opened the machine (the machine of failure is often does not work, open the machine) steal domestic stock, download a great wisdom, that program I already familiar. a domestic stock market is opening up. looking at the screen share price up and down beat, mixed emotions for a while, did not dare to do, because the computer screen is always prompted to say the existence of pirated files, the operational risk. subsequently asked her daughter during the day, she said it doesn't matter.

With a network, time flies, a broad daylight bright. eat prepared after daughter coffee and bread and dry breakfast, today is the old city of Lyon and the gold tour head Park, the two places is the places of interest in Lyon.

In order to save money, but also to a more careful look at the city decides to walk to the apartment, to-North, it is noted that Lyon Street are mostly is very narrow. comparison rules of the North-South or East arranged. walk for about half an hour, out of the street, cross over the ground in front of a light, shade under the Moonlight, the open-space is a school district-daughter told me, she is also a large Lyon near here, in the more western point of roadside. Turning then to the West along the rail-road sides of trees more tall bushy, there seems to be the feeling of the village to the North, also then go not long before the Golden head to the Park.

Gold Head Park name, it is said that a King's head was thrown here, maybe the Louis XVI? across the metal laser etched door Rails, a statue of beauty and the upper part of the horse and one sat on the horse's body handsome naked body Kiss statue lined with sparkling lakes, located not far away at the door, seemed to welcome tourists coming. by this gesture, however, to welcome tourists, as Chinese people I was somewhat uncomfortable.

Kazakhstan, East-West cultural difference? Park forest, meadows, rivers and small bridges, cottage garden, everything is public leisure play good place is particularly gratifying is-the Meadow, forest birds that squirrels Ah, AH and the Swan pond ducks, not afraid of people, there is also a call on men's pheasant, three separate sharp feet, jumped into the water from the pond to swim to and no less than even the ducks.

Mother and daughter are both random walk. daughter's on here is very familiar with, a student in the last year she a rich area of the landlord where every day to ride through the Park to school today she accompanied her mother, again go into the Park, I do not know what thoughts? however, she is very great, reminds me of a saying in China: the strange case of the bosom friends, is the life of a happy. Moreover, I this Essentials or her MOM?

In the Park in the toilet, I've made a small convenient blooper. routine flushing water to find to find to find buttons. finally found at the wall, a press, a water was spraying, and put my shoes pants are wet! and can't find the button that had a permanent flow of rampant! shouted to her help, the door was opened. nonplus fled, also good Sun is bright, I sat on a Chair in the Sun.

The Sun for a while, shoes pants have dry, then got out of the Park, at the gate of the Park saw the self-assured policewomen. shoot the photograph. also see a sliding gate bicycle, is a style-daughter told me that this is a popular American bike car points. city has several Department. as long as it is organized in Lyon resident, with the necessary formalities, you can either use the city's convenient bike.. subsequently heard, have domestic Hangzhou such facilities, and other parts of the country is also considered.

From the Golden head Park, crossed a street, over a long covered with bushes of river slope, saw the Rhone.

The river has a wall near the mountain architecture of colorful houses, that is the old town of Lyon.

Walk along a section of the Rhone, the road extremely delicate bushes, Woods, river of the path in which the secret.

Without a will, on a bridge, the bridge on to the old town hall. Then go on to the stand Louis XIV statue and a big windmill square. Through the square with spinning, square end is a large old House that Lyon old city of old street area. step, take a step back can rise-Lyon Church is located at the top of the Hill.

Those streets are small, narrow, winding, ground polished small stones road, there is a notch to discharge with old houses on both sides-and some provision into selling souvenirs and food store, narrow streets, traffic, it is hilarious. restaurant dining Alfresco dining places, people doing great stuff has been eating lunch time, I and female

Infants also bought two sandwiches, sitting in the street side of the table to eat.

Finished up the mountain. very high mountain-100 stairs to the top of the Hill at the top of a hill Lyon City Centre neckbones. a crane of stands a tall pencil head like building, in the whole city is low bright buildings in contrast, is very eye-catching. it should be is the landmark of the city of Lyon.

Mountain church very macro Lai. two spires derricks, in front of the marble pillars is estimated to be three or four people as coarse. folded gates on various exquisite carved in relief, enjoy a moment.

Also in the Church's Chair and sit down – do not want to pray, but want to rest (later trip, I found in the chapel of rest is best). On the hillside near the church there are some similar vestiges of ancient open air theater-because I'm too tired, my sleepy as started, only far glanced. no closer.

Find the road down the Hill-daughter said, take the subway home. originally, the church door, there is a Metro entrance. excuse into the cave, a subway car had stopped in to see us there., drivers enthusiastic and we greet, get on with the car down the Hill.-to the ground, and drilling underground road, became a true sense of the Metro (later discovered, the subway, not only in Europe will rise, sometimes on the open, this and where the terrain downs for?)

Tomorrow the daughter to go to the lab work to cook things will-depend on me when I got home, the time-it is still early, daughter took me to the nearby supermarket acknowledge road, learn to buy anything to pay, and other details. Oh, today in halfway through Chinatown, also in turn go. bought a paper plane. other Chinese goods, looks are not new. today, there is also a matter worthy of note note: in the Rhone River, across the road opposite, far saw two Chinese students (I guess), we looked at each other for a long time, and turned away at that finally, without mutual waved waving.

I also saw the boy smile. out-of-home child, not easy!

Paris lover (1)

1: 50PM, I finally sit on the train to Paris.

In Belfort train station, we came to see me off, I see the goldfish mother's eyes wet.

Good mother, get ten day, everywhere is feeling a mother's love, I greedily enjoying, I never had a mother's love.

However, I still want to go, I'll continue my trip.

J.j. train sped away, France TGV really lives up to its name, speed, such as rocket.

I'm on the road.

I bought a cup of coffee.

Turn to take the magazine. Not many people.

This is the best season in France, a crisp, sunny.

France country like different landscape paintings, was holding a large brush painted dark green, yellow, red. See my breath.

6: 50PM, train arriving Paris East station.

The sky is blue, clouds, raining a little distance of the Sacred Heart Church, white is very eye-catching, that is the highest point in Paris, whether you are in Paris which are able to see it.

Walk down 11, platform, see Marnie.

Could it be that she so soon account for France people love the bad habit of being late?

The phone rang.

She cried, I 11, platform, Ah, I have come to the end of the platform, you are missing.

I smile and say, you go too fast, you forget that I never was the last stop, dear.

She came from a distance.

Long time no see.

Marnie ratio in China sometimes fat lot, France is dependant of FROMAGE, all friends from France will go back to several pounds of fat.

We hold.

Then she looked at me new hairstyle look and see. I dumped the half-shade eyebrow and throw a fringe, she blinked, "how?" she's confused and smiled, said: "cool, there surprising. However suits you this decadent guy! "I laugh, it seems you although China leave China for a year, Mandarin also fluently!

Marnie is China study abroad before Mongolia girl in guangzhouzhongshanyikedaxue consumption for five years time, last year at this time and her husband came back to France, France-a-half years later, and finally in Paris suburb Essonne in Bretigny found a job before they finally settle down.

We chat to edge out of the station.

Out of the station, I smell the taste of Paris.

The Sun is warm to the body, in a historic building, street people hurry, and others carelessly walked. Chinese parasol tree leaves are dark green, Golden Autumn already infected.

Drive too fast, the extraordinary beautiful luxury car, I didn't search for driving seat for a handsome guy.

We find the room you can sit outside in the Sun to Sun to cafe.

Drinking coffee, using Chinese chat, laughter.

Pay the Bill, drafted to raw smile and say, girls, HAVE A GOOD DAY.

We are ready to take the subway home.

Marnie insisted me to buy a ticket, she said, in Guangzhou, you take care of me, now my turn. She helped me back a piece of luggage that you is so small that the luggage is not big, but back to you, it looks very funny, street girl! I'll answer, that is okay, okay, I'm a little, but very strong, do not believe you see, I have a small mouse!

We both just joking until the car.

Paris subway is very heavy, dirty, inside the air is mixed with various people, perfume, mixed up with Arabs Tichou.

Paris Metro no air-conditioning, now also good, if summer is more difficult, especially during peak commute, have difficulty in breathing. Each person's forehead, nose, risking his sweaty. When you get off, you will find that took a long time of good makeup, half.

Paris essay

Union Square (Place de la Concorde), is the largest of the Paris city square, located in the 8th District of Paris. Is Louis 15 period building. Founded in 1754, lasted 9 years of works completed in 1763. Union Square is the enlightenment of modern urban architecture.

Speaking of "Concorde" this name has a paragraph and not hip or even violent, bloody history.

Concorde was originally named Louis XV square, in the middle of the casting of Louis XV, shows a horse statue in bit period evildoer. However, the 1789 revolution, France was revolutionary people down the statue, and changed the guillotine, retitled "Revolution Square", was a sensation in the world of Louis XVI executions, that is performed in the guillotine, subsequently there are thousands of people were executed in this. There is a legend: when the bloody taste due to place too heavy a herd to you from here after abruptly stop, refused to go through this place and diversions and rows. Until the square was reconstructed, in order to remember the end of the war years and the aspirations of the people praying for peace, once again changed its name to "Concorde".

Square still maintains the architectural style of the 18th century.

Located in the central square of Louis XVI's sculpture in the great time to be knocked down, its location is Egypt square minaret (the Obelisk of Luxor). Obelisk Tower up to 22.83 m, up to 230 tons, was sent to France, President of Egypt. In 1836, installation, and party minaret from Egypt Le Shu Temple of Amun, the original is placed to the left and right side of the front of the Hall, the formation of the party is small at the top of the cylinder, pyramid, ancient Egypt people use it to today the Sun God, the Tower has Egypt hieroglyphs, carving and documented that the stone from Egypt sent to France.

The Concorde is a regular Octagon.

The eight sculptures were placed in the square of eight corners of the central to generations, represents the eight cities in France. Square each side of the fountain and beautiful so stunned! green bronze statue of the sacred, hands or with fish, or holding the beloved musical instruments. Have a look at a solemn, condition, and the period of decoration and decorated with even with a bright gold. Let tour to this design and match at first taken aback, and admiration European 18th century civilization and creation.

The Concorde is Medellín North Church (La Madeleine).

When Napoleon had intended to put here as his wedding ceremony, but because marriage dissolution could not hold a permanent and beautiful. The South is France's Parliament Hall. Is the National Academy of fine arts East, and West is a rich, luxurious, and the famous Champs Elysees Avenue (the Champs Elysées).

From the square to the sunset, the Champs are here.

Vehicle wear, wide Street with during refloating bump terrain of this street sense. If the weather conditions, the end is to avoid the ears of the Arc de Triomphe and the famous (Arc de Triomphe).

The legend of the modern and the description on the Champs Elysees, slander and praise saying too much.

Like modern Paris, pop 's, speaking of the small capitalist. I know it is from the Dumas Cristo ", its early in the 18th century, she has been a symbol of wealth and power...

Walk on the Champs Elysees Avenue watching Avenue flourishing and busy Central Ave. Phoenix trees covered by thick France's leisure, experience with Paris life and romance.

Boutiques, fashion, cinema interspersed among them, gorgeous, elegant, and leisure. Abortion have clothes fresh, whole-with its elegant and warm youth also have simple arbitrarily, but have no feelings of pride and artificial. Midst, easy and enjoyable.

Champs Elysees Avenue, almost a section with the Seine is parallel to the South, from the main road to reach the Seine.

Seine in France, Northern France originated Langres plateau in the East, passing through Paris, the Le Havre and inject the English Channel near, 776 km in length.

The Seine River in Paris is the thing flows, winds through small Paris (Paris area) or through the great Paris (Paris and suburbs).

The River is sunny or rainy day is always a wave of selling sell, picturesque lurch, has nothing to do with the wind. Spirituality underlines.

Many of the sights along the River.

The Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, Notre Dame, Concord Plaza, Osei art are both sides of her things. Battambang and the set of unique coffee shop, stop foot rest, whether standing or sitting, are very happy. If you are careful enough, you can find out along the Louvre to Notre Dame a segment of the South shore of the River, has lined up neatly in one green iron box, the location of the rows of boxes is to sell old books old Paris, specialized in the field. Push-primary might come up when the Titanic ticketing counterfoil or posters to show off to you. Among them there are some early newspapers and between the various biblical story. There is a genuine and fake, push the main city and you explain, but the real value is in the genuine by collectors have their own taste. Because of the unique cultural atmosphere, has become one of the old-world plaintext in Paris.

Nearly 8 in the evening, 9 points, the sky, still so clear, so blue.

Some cloud lightly floating in the sky, serene, tranquil. Lanterns, lights in the style and Shan. Seine River cruise ships set sail on... Cruise on a noisy crowd clapped and cheered and sometimes, very busy. And quiet river-Hui should become King. The river has a boat in the water. Static and dynamic, in a quiet lane is moving. Beauty is not sung.

A man sitting on the edge of the Seine, heart time inextricably linked, hundred thousand turn on how, for a time but it seems to be calm sky clouds hanging.

Feeling the magic and beauty of nature, but also longing hearts that feelings of sustenance. Happy can be simple, sat in the River, watching the river's shores, watching the sky-hsi, steal the heart of that care. Family members, lovers and friends.

Journey to the West

Preamble

To European tourism, in the first fall in love with travel time of ultimate destination.

At that time, Europe is a rich culture and beautiful scenery, is to remain at the heart of that yearning. However, when finally starting to plan their journey, they suddenly discover online presentations and travels to her praise of words and not too much, and go to friends is crowned with the "can" and "General" and "bad" reviews. All this makes me not tempting and hesitated a. ..

Eventually decided to go to is afraid 11 cherished everywhere during the crowded tourist spot, that travel to me, just a kind of physical and mental relaxation and rest, and must give too many connotations.

So, just walked into Europe, and so began my "journey to the West".

Write this article, travels, I have sat in the back to China from Europe by plane, land in Western Europe back on these days, I could not make a very pertinent and vivid summary.

Can only say that this time, harvest far exceeded my expectations; here every day, has a new wonder and have different experiences and feelings, we can say that this really is my tourism career "perfect chapter"!

Journey to the West

European beauty, is unable to use the camera lens to capture and manifestations.

The lens can be left with just a picture and small small piece, but in this ancient land, but they are numerous pieces of art of tile and extension.

The beauty of Europe lies in her profound cultural tradition.

It is this culture, as European beauty gives life; it is culture, so that Europe can remain beautiful environment consistent at the same time, it has its own unique charm and individual style: art of Paris, the simplicity of Brussels, the fairy tale world of Germany Netherlands, simplicity, leisurely Switzerland. .... Each have their own exciting, each have their own culture.

Adjacent to the five countries, with five different languages, the four countries and with the same currency.

Here, face seem to write rich and relaxed, let people envy while also not tempting then slowed down the steps.

Arts Palace------Paris

Paris to my first impression is not good.

We are in the early morning 6 o'clock the Paris airports, Roissy Charles de Gaulle airport is a small old so I was shocked. Stood as shelter like only had room for 1 person in the narrow long elevator, looked around the darkened light exposure white cement walls, I cannot help but whisper: gosh, such a small airport, really anything happened, escape is not knowing where to escape!

From the airport to the city of Paris, on the outskirts of the rendered out of that old or out of my expectation, the Opera and just a few small towns of China looks like, well, which is a little big city flair.

However, the next 2 days of stay in Paris, I am impressed on Paris, Haber is the completely filled with the art of the big city's charm.

Whether it's the dawn of Notre Dame, or red against the blue sky, the Concorde, the Champs Elysees in the Sun, Risha Avenue or array with numerous art treasures of the Louvre, and the twilight of the Seine. .... No one does not make people returned to crush to forget. This city, you can meet the journalist who are artistic pursuits, and can meet the fashionable people on the famous and fashionable desire, and this all, and has a beautiful scenery make the background colour. At this point, the parties to understand why Paris in the eyes of has such a lofty status.

With feet measured Paris

Since the itinerary is relatively easily, so we have time spent 2 6 hours alone in the walk through the streets of Paris, at the traffic lights to feel the culture of Paris.

Walking in the streets of Paris, everywhere can feel the city's rich artistic atmosphere.

Street building, with classic and elegant style. Whether the roof or window frames, all with great art of decoration, or statue or lace, hand finished and detailed, so that people were amazed at the city of architects.

Paris streets are very narrow, apart from a few four-lane road, I saw that almost is a two-lane street, and most of the winds, a sight not far, go together, but very long.

Streets shop Windows yet another Vista line.

That one tiny glass showcase, Paris's art cells seen genetic. Whether you are selling bread candy shop, or jewellery ornaments, lamps, etc, etc, are designed to be just right, Merlin-hwan, but each have their own characteristics, without copying and plagiarism. Just enjoy the window will have a wonderful enjoyment!

Many of the sculpture in Paris, it's all too easy to run into several, always quietly stay in proper places, let see people feel very comfortable.

Especially like the Concorde that several of the statue of Notre Dame, against the Blue Sky Digital and peaceful expression IK.

Paris by those leisure atmosphere often make people forget he is an international metropolis.

When you see the sidewalk cafe Chair in full "sigh" coffee; when you see the Louvre is the garden of people wandered in the Sun and walk free Seine, the groups should have is to go to school or office workers but they pounded the sled run by young people for the shuttle, you will marvel at the leisurely pace of life here!

It's first day in the afternoon, go tired we sat at the Paris Opera on the steps of rest before, behind which sat the Almanac of all colors, or rest, or others, or do nothing; the front is a group of the city can be seen in the small Dove, bounce; and then the front is a forward "the job" foreigner cleaners, grab a cleaner in China appears to be simply cannot sweep of big broom ___ plastic ties, dilute sparse memorials, casually looking for small pieces of paper on the floor, and then use the broom to dial to step down the sewer Department that is, complete tasks, such as the clean car only to those with water directly into the sewer.

Oh, that's the job looks really easy to do, and human welfareNice:)

Paris cultural yun Yu out of Paris's elegant.

This word is in the streets around the next afternoon, stroll into a living area, when suddenly popped into my head. Really, in Paris on the street to see many people, both men and women, the elderly, children, carrying basket housewives or carrying a Briefcase of working people, who bring a taste of elegance, simple dress, but without losing the personality, behaviour ease, smile, humble, many boyfriends: Belle. Although not sure these are all people, but at least in Paris is the city that came here people are not conscious, more or less integrated into some cultural elements.

Paris traffic situation is also not good.

Sunday due to the size of the shop is open to traffic, but also easy to jam to Monday, from time to time. While I appreciate that ordered the car here, and no Guangzhou drivers commonly left wearing the right for the cross-hard. The street to small cars, most with a vehicle owner's personality injection with various color pattern. Like a call SMART 2-seater mini van, look a bit like a small beetle, Q has a personality. It is said that Paris is listening to the sound stop, because will not look in the mirror, so when I heard a "bang" sound when you know the location. Haha, this is an ideal way of stopping me this does not look at your mirror man Oh. .....

Fly in the ointment is that the price is too expensive! in shopping, often customary prices to ten times more Exchange conversion back to the Yuan, then jotting to blurt, last toilet to 3 Yuan, there is no free toilets; $ 14 a mineral water; a packet of McDonald's fries $. 40.. ...

Good, but do not live! it is said that the General work of the monthly income of about 1800 euros, equivalent to 18000 Yuan, it seems that such income, walk in Paris will be more relaxed about it.

Most admired person of Paris on the French love and persistence.

In the internationalization of the big city, in addition to a hotel or some big department store, basically do not see any English words, including street maps, traffic signs, street signs, names, etc are the most basic and common facilities, all are in French. Let us only on the street side of the maps look on in despair, looking for half a day not find their location.

Simplicity of Brussels

Northbound from Paris by car in about three hours, entered the territory of Belgium.

The so-called border between the two countries, but is set next to the highway a EU signs, no barriers or frontier inspection, the car will proceed smoothly.

If Paris is a gorgeous Lady, that Brussels is a plain surface chaotian village girl.

Here's a street or building is showing its austere aspect, not too many fancy decoration, but also give people a feeling of calm.

Reach the famous main square (Grand Place), the sky is a slight drizzle.

Rain of square is empty, only sparse distribution of some tourists taking pictures, and more show up to stand alongside the Town Hall and Cathedral of silence.

The famous little urine child like quietly stayed in an unremarkable street corner, very small, it's all too easy to go ignored.

At this point, but because of his legendary awaited story attracted a drawing and a drawing visitors. So, what, when we give cultural or historical connotations, everything will be different.

Fairytale world-Netherlands

Netherlands is this trip I was an excellent impression of a country.

Love those lovable demon Netherlands small House! whether scattered in the large green grass hut, or in the streets of the city or suburb hidden in the bushes, trees are extremely lovely and bright colours, like the great fairy tales do those with chocolate in the room. Red, green, blue, yellow, gray, also be used to make white chocolate chrome, compact and showcase. It is said that once upon a time in the Netherlands is based on the housing size and pay personal tax, so people were deliberately narrow houses and small, have to form today's architectural style.

Netherlands in rural scenery is so I have a crush on the yet another big factor.

A large a large green grass, Merry cows and lambs are leisurely walk ate grass, and then in the distance, the cute little house. So, always make people wanted to make it one of the cows, and live the good life in abundance.

Netherlands about a quarter of the land is the Netherlands people through reclaimed.

But also all over the city of Amsterdam is more artificial sinking of the Canal. Autumn sunshine, canoeing on River, view on both sides of the autumn leaves, building, listening to the radio on board with including Mandarin, three languages to do cross-strait scenery and historical commentary, there is something feelings!

It is said that in order to save energy and protect the environment, the Netherlands Government encourages people use bicycles.

So in Amsterdam, you can see lots of people riding. Car models in China is considered obsolete, and is mostly a permanent, Phoenix, and many are not brake system. However, when you are cold Sunrise saw one wearing shorts skirt youth pretty zestful push bike their way, you will find the city how youthful and energetic!

Germany — simple style

Always think of what special right words to describe the feelings of this country, because what are just some of the fragments that seem unable to scrape a overall impression.

The reason to use the word "simple" is derived from the two night stay at the hotel impressions. Although it is a different hotel, room layout has a similar style, not find a fancy decorations and decorating, although a simple yet complete. But in the meantime see all Germany goods, irrespective of the houses, vehicles, or the famous steel products, give me a similar feeling. Compared with the Paris art, the Netherlands, he is even more simple and lovely, but compared with the simplicity of Brussels, he will air a lot. Even in the street of those who, although Germany clothing are serious, the expressionPartial and make you feel calm and trustworthy as Germany products in the image of the world.

We cruise from a small town called bingen, began a beautiful Rhine journey.

The Sun is shining, the autumn wind slowly, very pleasant. Cross-Strait all green grass of the hills, from time to time, skip the white walls of gray roof and construction, stands in mountain cliffs that has numerous legends of castles and neat rows of grape fields. The history of the castle can save so full, strong advocates, and the Government of the people of spontaneous support. It is said that the Government of Germany has launched the "dollar Castle", that is, symbolically your dollar will buy the castle to have the capacity to maintain the old castles of private or institutional, so it is a good way.

Paradise-Switzerland

Have always been very curious, Switzerland will give me what kind of feeling.

This is the world known as metaphor like Wonderland, will be my journey to the endpoint, but the Visual impact in recent days, has let me create the aesthetic fatigue, wonder if there will be new surprises.

Sure enough, a stay in Lucerne days, I've been very quiet, calm and with a little lazy.

This is a typical small town in Switzerland, a small town that is, in fact, already the third largest city in Switzerland. The entire city ring liusenhu, the Lake and the famous bridge and octagonal tower has become the symbol of this city. Walking slowly around the Lake, at the autumn sunshine warm warm spilled in the body, but also onto the Lake and the bright playful Swan and waterfowl, is still very relaxed. Lucerne is such a place, he can rush people slowed down the pace, let people restless to get my inner quiet. ....

The real surprise came from iron men of snow, the Alps altitude of 10 000 ft in the snowy mountain peaks, to our awesome simply unmatched.

Just because the world's first ride-360 degree rotation scenic tramway Board xuefeng; also not only because in the exhilarating top rolling list of small hills under the blue sky; but more importantly because it scattered on the hillside of quiet cabins, as well as across the Valley of cow bells, what a paradise! I returned to the hanasi,, the former shall only be through hardships are looking for, and the latter is so broad and down to render in a large urban centre. Use the companion of a word: this really is a perfect full stop!

PostScript

Back to have Guangzhou for several days, and re-enter the busy gasping, only when the finishing photo thoughts will fly back to the distant lands to roaming.

Often, why the European Council makes me so crazy and wonder? not seen the beautiful scenery, daocheng, Tibet, Xinjiang has in fact; nor is it because she has a long history and culture, in this context our great Motherland would in no way inferior to any country. I think, in fact, the wonder is that have not seen you for a blue sky, is returning to the big city of orderly, more is the largest city in the little leisure and quiet. .....

Always very distressing to China's economic development is at the expense of the natural environment, often think that crying daocheng wood; she did not dare to imagine after Tibet pass railway.

Economic development is expected by the local people, but for the local natural environment, but it will be quite painful!

Has also been very reluctant to do so as not to have been involved in Guangzhou that crazy rhythm whirlpool, sweated, trying to learn, but often forget the true meaning of life.

So with every one year away from the city, runs into the motives for the lost.

Did not expect is that Europe should be able to bring my city comfortable at the same time, I experienced the same beautiful scenery and the humanities.

I think this is I have a crush on the real reason for Europe!

And look, I'm European cultural monuments, not many people know, is to be able to share my trip fragmented emotions and feelings and these will I actually is the full meaning of tourism... ...

Air France-a Chinese bully Chinese airlines

Air France-a Chinese bully Chinese airlines

In early October, I took the 2-year-old daughter take the Air France from Paris back to Shanghai.

Seats in the rear, unfortunately, just in front of the translators seat in a row. (In order to improve service quality, Air France in particular hired Chinese translators to assist Air France cabin crew and passengers. I did not expect) nightmare start on this.

Met acquaintances, we whispered greetings.

Suddenly heard a harsh voice: "you do not so noisy that affect my rest. "This in any flight never encounter complains, engine room is brightly lit, besides we don't really have much noise. The original is sitting in the seat of the translation teams are professional linguists performing translation Miss has asked. We had to their spread.

Aircraft lights, most of the passengers began to rest.

9 hour journey, all passengers will seat tilt. I hold a sleeping daughter, almost on the front seat of his daughter. I will seat adjustment by a very small angle, fear affects passengers behind. Carrying three or four hours, very tired, I secretly twisting a few. Shoulders are very politely clapped, is behind the translation. Didn't catch nothing, and ultimately is what mistakes I made, I apologize. Engine room air conditioning, daughter a bit cold, I hold my daughter difficult bend over to pick up a Chair and found under blankets, to her small pillow cushion to feel better.

Suddenly, the waist is back translation of Miss hit two knee, skin and burned his skin and burned his, I'm a bit muddled.

Shoulders are severely beat it, "you what!" a ferocious face. Now realize, she suspected I was fixed to fixed seats.

My seat back adjustment was not to Miss ten degrees, translation is a one metre six thin girl, I do not understand how prejudice to her, I will not be able to rely on in their own seat on activities at himself, besides I 9 hours has been holding a 2-year-old child.

Surrounding passengers were angry, and I denounce.

I did not want to complain in front of foreigners own people, but I really can't help.

Air France's crew long cannot manage translators, because the level of departmental management.

I filled out a questionnaire, annotated complaints to my address, phone, cell phone and EMAIL. The refinement of France crew long guarantee help me go to the appropriate departments, while the translator to crew rest area.

In the complaint of five months, I look forward to becoming disappointed until today I did not receive any messages from Air France.

Maybe for distinguished Air France, a year just to sit an Air France's Chinese mother's complained directly into the trash.

Station in honor of the French airline's translators, more is better than us ordinary Chinese people to be noble.

I have to say that only friends and relatives, said: "don't sit on Air France, where Chinese bully Chinese.

I would like to see this post: Let's support Air China, Air France, really do not know what the Chinese people.

All this is true, I'm in any occasions when faced with quality!

Fontainebleau

To Paris, have always felt here in two places, one of the most beautiful is the Champs Elysees, Fontainebleau. Especially the latter. The beauty of it is brilliant and pure imagination: fall, sky blue, red, maple leaves, grass dew condensation. Also think that the best season is here, in the autumn. Here, the original and autumn there is absolutely no contact, no see maple leaf. Fontainebleau, Word-for-Word, French mean beautiful springs.

Naturally there is a fountain.

Where is the source of the spring already do not know.

Now visitors to see the Lake, surrounded by the forest, a Lake, sky blue pool spotless floors, a blue. Shore Reed swaying, Lake Gull birds fly.

Large lawn, flowers blooming, towering trees silence silent.

Fontainebleau Palace, is located in the forest of the Palace, built in the 12th century, is the Royal Palace of.

Napoleon and many huangdidu often here hunting, Napoleon also often with Josephine to this play. Fontainebleau, though not as good as the Louvre and Versailles so stylish spectacular, but it's unique fine wooden walls, gypsum Emboss and Mural art, combining it with a flavor here. The afternoon sun shining through, according to the glitz here. Former pomposity.

Fontainebleau near beautiful.

Here the graceful scenery attract to numerous painters to this sketch, communication, life. They are called Barbizon village settled down. Facing the picturesque-like nature, breathing the fresh air, the artist's mind began a new journey. Beautiful natural scenery and simplicity of life, into their eyes, jumps to a brush before them. Famous Barbizon school began to form.

It was in the 30s of the 19th century, the restoration of the great failures, dynasty, the political situation changes, social unrest, people generally want to seek a spiritual oasis.

Barbizon is exactly what they are looking for a piece of pure land.

These painters abandoned classical art of contrived, it abandoned the Netherlands landscape of delicate imitation, the "face of nature, on the King's painting" slogan, to portray rural real scenery for the object.

Rousseau is there major painters, he settled in 1844 in Barbizon.

His objectives, style and development show that the Barbizon school, known as a "specially painted oak ethos." His work "the boy on the rocks", "the sleeping gypsy girl", "wedding" and are now kept in Washington State Museum, New York, modern museums, Paris its Garden Museum, etc. There are also referred to as the "landscape of Beethoven" du Bo Les, specifically painting cattle herding on the rustic land of troyan and in plain view on the beautiful Miller in.

That said Miller.

Miller's most famous works is the "the gleaners.

In Sunset gold, peasant women focused on the ear on the ground. Contrast to the background of yellow and bright, peasant women figure is black and silence. The hardships of life, fate, a hint of sadness floats in the picture.

Miller's painting of the artist's deep to future generations.

In addition to Van Gogh, the surrealist artist Salvador Dali also claims that his first painting of enlightenment is Miller of the evening Bell ".

Miller is a farmer.

He came to Paris in the evening, it was snow, mud, dirt, Paris. He rides, walking, one of the Aeolian, see this Paris. He disappointed it cried. "Paris such as the collapse of the capital of Babylon. "He felt that the home person. It is this country boys first time in Paris.

A famous writer said "I'm scowling the slightest interest in Paris.

"He has to stay in Paris, a lifetime of living here.

Paris, the number of young people, the sustenance of the artist's dream, but packed with people, and a few people can illuminate our eyes?

Miller is a winner.

But he did not get it all. Miller died in 1899, 14 years later, France began his talents. His exhibitions are also organised. He's the pick Spike and the evening Bell on a well-deserved paintings. Once you become a famous paintings and after, people will add to their understanding, for it to others. We spread the wings of imagination, experience, philosophy, the lot is not something added to it. In fact, a painting, it portrays to you is what you see. You first see it, the feeling is the truest feeling. The truest feeling comes from our hearts warm and touching.

Now the Barbizon is a small town, because history, because now clustered with numerous artists and famous, but now the painter also had a respectable middle-class life.

Clean both sides of the stone pavement, is in the heart of a small house, second floor, each floor is very chic, with absolutely different. Floor in the courtyard. Courtyard with flowers and trees, is a pure natural scenery. The House is fanning artistic atmosphere.

Miller's Studio, in a simple little courtyard, no flowers and trees of small courtyard.

The Studio is divided into two miles away, with a large number of landscape, this is Miller later student art. They mimic Miller, now has become one of the factions.

Afternoon light sunlight floods they, according to the quiet beauty, serenity as my heart.

Romantic Paris 8 days-7 Tour

In fact, always wanted to go to France, especially the look to her and see yilianyoumeng, is yearning for joy, or as soon as possible to share with you my romantic Paris Tour, this time in Paris, tourism, or first and we talk about hotels, hotel in Paris is quite expensive, but fortunately we have our Customer Service Department for the holidays-source we do Exchange, so don't worry about yourself or use a lot of money, say that Paris traffic.

Paris transport most convenient is Metro, a subway ticket about 1.4 Europe, if you're not out of the subway station, you can follow your collection of subway route map to go to any sites you want to go.

But the best way to visit Paris or walking, affordable, and Paris's attractions are very close to the very dense, no car, along the Seine, full of tourist attractions. Notre Dame's square was full of many from MO poignant love story to this appeal. Listen in as we, the members of the Group on heard member mission stresses care square gypsy girl. People crowded in to experience Notre Dame, Notre Dame de Paris Zoo. Visit the Notre Dame door needs long team, but is free of charge, once had a friend because see many people queued to tickets, missed this attractions, some regret. But if you want to top to Notre Dame, is the need to queue up and want to buy tickets, tickets for 7 euro.

If Notre Dame in a solemn atmosphere, the Eiffel Tower was then filled with laughter.

People lined up waiting for the elevator on Sightseeing Tower, 7.5 €/person for tickets is not cheap. But you can also choose to walk, climb Tower in 3.5 Euro/person. Walking up to reach the second floor of the Eiffel Tower, in the second floor of the Eiffel Tower Paris sightseeing on stage, all the city's panoramic: derricks of the Sacred Heart Church, France revolution revolution Center Concorde, the Louvre collection of human civilization, the city held together by limpidity of the Seine.

Later went to fill the world with treasure, the Louvre, I almost spent a whole day, but did not see her again, but the town tube Sambo: Headless wings of victory, the goddess Venus-wrecking, smile of Mona Lisa and I are very thin.

The Palace of exhibits too much, to thoroughly enjoy the essence of the history of human civilization, have two or three days, the day seemed to walk through the maze, or tired enough to choke, tourism is also a nice task Ah.

Paris cultural preservation is very good, but tickets are relatively cheaper still, many of which are free, the situation is almost zaike not seen.

Paris night scene is also very beautiful

Three beauties self-driving tour southern Europe (multi-map)

Beginning with the words

The travel I divided the three parts, one part is the press diary forms of local customs and we travel mood of records; part of the press we encounter problems, solve problems, a little strategy mean writing; another is the daughter of a journal, a child's unique perspective.

Is so, is more comprehensive for everyone to see a life of routinized Europe, just like we did from Beijing to Beidaihe, close to nature. In fact, transnational travel far nobody you imagine so difficult, I start from the idea to apply for a passport, visas, tickets, hotel and car rental start talking, everyone can follow my description to a European magic. It's important to note that our place is usually very few people go, at least outside line travel agency, tour, and I have always thought that this kind of tourism is interesting, I think of Alice ctrip is such a lot, hopefully this article has been like.

2008 July 25 to August 22, we three women with two children in Europe for nearly a month of free line, we walked nine countries, 19 days before the rental is 5700 km, finally flying Greece in two island for a few days.

This is a challenge, because there are three women with two children, to their car, their design route, the road of myself, this time the hotel belong to the European tourist season, the House than usual expensive, often set up, kids can't sleep on the streets, there is a security problem, I hear that some Chinese people robbed, because Chinese love with cash, therefore, we do not dare to bring cash. Passport documents many copies in case if lost or stolen, you can promptly find Chinese diplomatic bodies.

Spring in southern Europe-France Provence, Marseille

Bid farewell to the French Riviera, I take the TGV high-speed train travelled to France's second largest city of Marseille. Along the way about four hours, had shortly after Cannes, tracks from the coast to Provence, the Mainland, the scenery along the French Riviera-beautiful and pleasant to the undulating hills. Its topography and Jiangbei to lunan area village some similar, mountain is not high and rugged very slow, sandy soil is cultivated as farmland, and vegetation are low shrubs. Farmland cultivation is grape, I cannot help but recall the Provence wines, although not the best of France, but also a reputation.

Provence provincial land is fertile, is France's major agricultural province.

In history, while continuing the greedy Overlord who would like to take this appropriation, the Ethnology of the beauty of nature here Tim scenery without making people will pass. From Roman times through to Louis XIV, the people to rebellion against tyranny. Freedoms and fighting spirit, into the blood of the people. Exciting France national anthem-the Marseillaise is the best example of this. South East coastal, Marseille, West, North face you are like the mountain, like taking the city arms in his arms. And the mountain are the inner ring and outer ring, the city therefore steep easy keep difficult to attack. Coupled with the natural harbor, Marseille is the unique military operators. About Marseille's port, Dumas's novel "the count of Monte Cristo" chapter "boats to Marseille" a vivid depiction. Then I will also be more detailed description of some ink.

The Marseille is the afternoon starts, because I called, I know we've got a lot of youth hostel bed, so not much of a hurry to get to.

Near the railway station bought a burger for dinner, I sat in the high ground outside the railway station of white stone bench top eating according to the High Council of feeling Marseille to my first impression. After eating and dragging luggage in the city is just a circle. Because it is a port city, here people person who crosses the entire city of crucian carp, noisy, bustling and slightly with the smell of stale. Remember to read a tourist information in such a depiction of Marseille: "like being non-evil with a hard to resist the temptation to let people sink before you know it. "About because it is a time out, main street crowds, many of them non-white dress and temperament of pedestrian rude, look and behave in a depressed. In particular many people one by one in the Middle East, enquiries, big mustache linen collar flower shirt open neckline to reveal the neck on thick gold chain and the following from my chest. Their groups gathered in the alley, a furtive and speed very quickly a whisper, a fierce and gestures, occasionally also to alert a glimpse of the sweep.

A look at the table is half of the six, in a strange city to attention security factors.

I think this is the time to the hotel. The hotel is at the Northern hillside of Marseille, should take the road car in "Marious Richard" stop. There are 20 to 30 Station Road, out of the city after the big bus on the narrow roads in residential areas on the side of the hill side left bend right. Few station name not available because no one has many small Bell driver is not stopped. The best is a bus to the driver description which stop most of the drivers that are not in English, you can only talk to him after repeat point a plus sign pointing. My approach is simply the address of the hostels up to them to see. Get off and walk 50 metres, then turn into the right-hand lane end, is a junction, then turn right walk along the downhill Road 200 meters, among them a left turn, arrived at the next junction after the street garden light yellow three-tier architecture is the youth hostel. Internet Routing Guide is written by unclear, which I ran back and forth quite a long way. However, values, this cyts is Napoleon era a classical Villa remodeling, less internal style of tall lobby, nice landing long form and elegant decorative wall decoration, is the entrance gate with massive carved door roomy of cast iron handle a Antiquities. Luck was assigned to a room facing the South, a throw open their Windows can see Marseille City Star lights. Or in the restaurant at breakfast sitting in front of the window can also be seen also in the morning mist shrouded in Marseille. The hotel is surrounded by a noble residential areas, mostly sagas detached buildings, ambience and tidy. The hotel interior is clean is clean, people live in very pleasant. The hotel's address and phone number is:

Address: GAllee des Primeveres

Phone: 04 91 49 06 18

Fax: 04 91 49 06 18

I'm in room and one person talking to France for a while, he was in his thirties, do maintenance exterior of Mason, it can be considered a self-employed person.

I asked him this is not a hard and bitter and, in particular wind or rain, have you ever thought about a career change, and so on. He listened to my words seemed confused, ask what I am referring to, said he liked the job, can give him free reward travel life, is also very strong, he went to the people make an appointment in advance for half a year, regardless of wind or rain he often work side whistling. I often come across similar foreign exchange issues. Our domestic some perspective here. I always feel like in the subconscious Mason a class of physical work is low, the line of people complaining and complaining days for sure, will say that remark. But he himself did not consider us in similar circumstances there may be concerns.

The second day, ride down the mountain, I first went to Marseille in the northern part of the Lung Heung Gong (Long-Champ Palais).

That is, in fact, the Palace is a palace built in the form of towers, historic, only positive set of fountain group sculpture quite imposing, turbulent flow from this turbulent flow direction of the city. The sculpture is a large concentration after the inseparable from the shade of the trees abound. Because it was getting up early, no one in the Park, only one corner of the park there are crowds of wild cat sitting on the couch in the Sun, seen people aren't afraid of.

From the fragrant Palace, I then went to the city centre of the Gothic Cathedral.

This is a typical Gothic bell tower of the engraved into the clouds, the roof is a very sharp angle, brittle stone depends on the inside of the iron frame support。 The pattern on the wall decoration is extremely complex character carving disproportion, look bleak. The church interior lit, not class room. All this is to reflect the sovereign middle ages theocratic, authoritarianism and terrorist force people into submission.

Out of the Church I ran down the main street of cards Marseille than Nur road until you come to the old port.

Port is rectangular, into mouths of a natural formation of bend, so that the whole harbour in semi-enclosed, play the waves remain calm when you port. Port-a couple of kilometres, there are several small islands, in the above fix Fort became the natural barrier of the port. Plus eating depth, Marseille from all sides have the natural harbor requirements, it is no wonder that from the Roman period to be taken seriously and development. Port is a row before selling fish vendors, plastic boxes piled many strange deep sea fish, I recognize that flat flatfish. Some hawkers complexion, eyes are red, breezes of chewing tobacco on one side, with no old fisherman's family.

Bought a ticket to Yves Castle (also called Fort paclitaxel, French d'if) tickets, I hurry to go to the West of the port of Marseille main church.

This is an Orthodox Church, the main styles of the dome and Bell Tower are on either side of the onion. External color bright, sufficient lighting, and a Gothic church completely is two of the world. The main church in Marseille, Newport Beach or from the sea. Take a look at the departure time will come, I rushed to the Terminal, on the way to buy a sandwich at Yves island on the belly.

Speaking of Yves Island, it is much better known.

Dumas the count of Monte Cristo "Tang di, being framed, was fourteen years of underground prison is located here. It is said that Louis XIII's twin brother, the famous "iron man" was imprisoned here. Novelist is imaginary words, in fact there is no basement prison. But the island has held many political prisoners. Stone fortress is back to font, plus ' at one of four layers, surrounded by vast prison, the middle is a small courtyard. Cell humid dark, window size also holds a Seagull. Some put the TV in the room, play count of Monte Cristo versions film fragments, walls echoed Tang di in cells curse of despair, murmuring prayers and violent verbal abuse, and before you know it was a terrorist, surrounded by an atmosphere of oppression. Back to sunny spell, really a bit though as the impression. In the Castle ' looking back at the desk can, looked to the South of Marseille is made me recall the North Africa.

Apart from the Castle Yves island there are two small house, a former Governor's mansion, now transformed into a toilet; a canteen and a small restaurant is.

The island of the sea breeze is blowing a moment and began to feel cool, blowing long really feel the wind has been blowing into the bones. And the outlying islands ferry trips of long and had to hide in the commissary in Typhoon head. There are a lot of souvenirs, all kinds of knot sample most interests me, sailor knot, called the people section, tied by rope section, and so on, and Marseille's port identity is proportionate.

Marseille last attraction is the old port in the eastern part of the high ground of Notre-Dame church.

10-metre-high Golden Virgin stands at the top of the Hill of the steles, Marseille city can see, she looked down the old port and bless the departure of the vessel. Climb the heights you can look out to the distant Yves Island floating on the sparkling sea. The structure of the Church is also very unique, I first met: it is divided into two layers, each with complete the shrine in the Palace and Chapel. Following a short, no roof window, like basements, but there is also a tall metres. Both sides of the aisle are full of the promise to leave candles, warm atmosphere. Top layer on both sides of the magnificent decoration of the walls hung up in the biblical story of the Virgin. It is interesting to note that some of them are Chinese painting techniques drawn, Notre Dame was wearing a dress for ladies ancient Suzhou, the son Jesus seems to hold the CARP on new year's fat baby, let people read more than endure Jun.

In the old harbour of a vast urban area is the old city of Marseille, however old building seems to be saved without much explanation, but no one can go to.

However old town hotel is good, you can try some authentic Marseille fish soup, price point than the old harbour around a lot cheaper. Marseilles East waterfront Department throughout Europe a unique white limestone Cliff cracks in the area of the beach is the Sun solarium, swimming and diving. But because you want to drive a car or a Charter to, I can only hope for the future.

Sights: Flash briefly.

Figurative sense is not superficial impression.

Source of the Tang dynasty · Chu Liang "poem:" the high table "floating light rippled with day, shadow-wave. "Scratching the cursory, synonyms.

As usual, every time you travel to pondering a thinks appropriate topics, head shake out skimming this idiom, I was feeling terribly sobering, consensual, as applicable to the removal of the travels, a written into two, first started to think of is the floating light glimpse of Italy, France, French LG glimpse of rotation:! well, seemingly more rhyme, well, okay, I adopt it.

My family and another family, on 14 February (the first) to 24 February (beginning of XI) participate in travel agencies of Italy, France (with the Vatican and Morocco) 11 days tour, to Tiger year left a deep imprint.

Because of the time difference, come back later this week I have hazy, sleepy have never been able to sleep, it's time to sleep, it's time to get a new person, but sleepy. Therefore, travel notes and old in my mind when I walk, March 1, today, is a good day, when, where, when, starting now.

Why use casually make topic, seemingly superficial, can be checked out idioms explains, it's quite fitting, followed by travel agents, can only be a cursory, scratching, regret is a pity, however, who let men's English is the second knife.

First visit to Europe, or obediently followed by mission. However, after this trip, summed up the experience, attention to the considerations, if there is a next time, I am definitely planning tours, that is the real meaning of travel. Well, gossip, take a look at our travel profiles:

1. Italy-travel

Rome-Vatican City: Florence-Venice-Milan-France

Second, the French tour

Italy — Morocco — nice-Cannes-Provence Aix-Avignon-Toulouse-Bordeaux-cognac-tour-Paris

In Europe call

Online there are many articles on calling abroad, most of which method is used to save money, until it reached Europe, didn't know there are some issues you need to know.

The traveler is not contact with home and international students, fewer, shorter.

In a country of stay is one or two days. Generally is the collective activities, there is no time to buy a phone card. Even if you bought, usually in another country also cannot be used. Finally use the euro coins.

In Vienna, and internally, the street phone knew a payphone or card phone.

But looking for 2, 3 telephone booths are also no money dial, Hua Lala free fall to the bottom. I regret not playing, or glad "bad phone" didn't eat my money.

In fact, the "bad phone" and not bad, just not annotated: only 1 Yuan and Dimes.

As long as there is a 2-element or $ 5, immediately the spilled all the money.

While in Rome, I hurried, was unable to find a payphone, it seems that all of the phone are the card.

Then down to, only to find phone and our different, its dual-use the card, coin, above a small ears, Minister (see attached map). It is only one element and Dimes.

12: 00 drive to Versailles.

Versailles landscape nature nobody's saying, especially in its garden. Our interior visit spent 5.3 euro per person, 6 euro per person in the garden. The whole visit spent about three hours.

Versailles tickets in Paris and the whole France are more expensive.

Interior visit full price 7.5 Europe, garden full price 6 euro. In our experience, the cheaper the visit method, arrive after 3: 30pm Versailles. Tour indoors, 3: 30 after 5.3 euros. Visit an hour later, garden there basically start free. (Although it is written on the price of 6: 00 after the garden is free, but it seems that the 5: 00 or 4: 30 or so of people, Garden ticket check is missing. )

20: 00 to hold the 1998 World Cup in France Stadium at Anthony die Director's Opera Turandot (Turandot).

It is said that Turandot in whole France only one field, just hit by us. Opera man-eating, beautiful melody. Just look at that time, because singing with the schoolItalian subtitles is French.

In the country to look at the long-awaited Turandot was seen in France.

It became our France trip.

Costs: 25 euro coin.

May 29 (Highland Montmartre (Montmartre Climetiere), Sacred Heart Church (Basiliquee du Sacre-Coeur), the Pantheon, the Bastille square (Bastiller), the Paris City Government, the Latin quarter (Latin Quatre), Centre Pompidou (Centre Pompidou Jeorge), Luxembourg Park (Yardins du Luxembourg), new Arc de Triomphe (La Defense))

Today is in Paris is the reciprocal of the whole France stay on the second day, so today's main task is to put some haven't been to, or less important attractions yet to see it again.

The above mentioned attractions apart from Sacred Heart Church and outside Luxembourg Park, are not allowed to visit. In these places, I personally prefer the Montmartre heights of art spread and Studio Art atmosphere, there are also new Arc de Triomphe and around bold but yet elegant modern building.

There is also a place worth mentioning is the Paris City Government.

Because of the positive value of Paris's bid for the 2012 Summer Olympic Games, the city before hanging up a huge bid for the flag. Our bid to host the Olympic Games logo photo before, and I sincerely wish Paris bid is successful.

30 May (during Eiffel-Seine)

Today's task is reached during a boat Tour Eiffel and the Seine.

9: 00 to the Tower, but have not yet started selling tickets until 9: 30am.

Arrived 9: 30, Tower four corners of one of the four ticket office, or, a sell only climb the stairs on the second floor of the Eiffel Tower, the door only four or five men, the other two are sold on to the elevator on the second floor or top level, with long queues at the gate.

We chose to climb the stairs.

Benefits are many: cheap (take the lift to second floor to 7.3 Europe, climb up as long as 3.8 Europe), do not have queue, you can workout. On the second floor of the tower is not very high, about 10 minute climb up a little more. On the second floor you can also buy tickets to the top of the elevator, and never have to stand in line.

So here we are to those who want to fully appreciate during Eiffel did not want to queue up a friend's recommendation is: in the bottom of the tickets purchased climbing stairs, climbing to the second layer, and then in the second tier buy top of lift tickets.

11: 00 under the Tower, we walk along the Seine River to the East to the Pont des Invalides bridge, Bateaux Mouches cruise ships to dock.

More about 5 euro ticket. Because time is good, so the boat after a few minutes after departure. Cruise ships are in Saint Louis Island (Ile St-Louis) and the statue of liberty, a round trip between walking trip approximately one hour. Seine river scenery while both sides have basically are seen, but sitting at boats on the recalled once again that still makes one emotion. Personally think that the Seine boats worth sitting.

14: 00 back to sister's house near Auchan supermarket to buy back to Canada.

Spent 90 euros.

Costs: 110 euro coin
