Switzerland… magical!

June 29, 2011

We… Jill, Becky and Leah, had an AMAZING first day in Switzerland. We went to the small towns of Interlaken, Lauterbrunnen & Beatenberg! It was absolutely stunning!

Enjoy!

    Breathtaking! Absolutely breathtaking!!! I bet the coffee has been amazing on your trip too!! All the little cafe’s… o my gracious!!

    Love the light hitting your Notre Dame pic.. and the collage totally rocks! LOVE!!

    What lens did you bring with you?

  2. Oh Pati, will you PLEASE become a travel photographer and travel the world for us? Your pictures are SO stunning! I really love the one of the little kid feeding the birds. I feel all jumpy inside, I love these pics! It really makes me want to go and visit Europe now. I’ve always wanted to visit France because French is something I picked up really easily on, but England! And Switzerland! Oh, you’ve really opened up a can of worms! I would LOVE to hear about your travels when you and Jill return. Have so much fun! : )!!!

The City of Lights…

June 27, 2011

Had an amazing night at the Eiffel Tower. Went to the top. It was absolutely stunning! We got home much too late for me to really edit photos. But here’s one.

Tonight we fly to Geneva Switzerland. I’m pretty sure that I won’t have much internet at all – but if I do, I’ll post a few photos!

    No need for editing on this one! Perfect! I believe this is the best picture I have ever seen of the Eiffel Tower. I am so excited to see more when you get home. xo

I was treated to an amazing birthday dinner by my wonderful friend Jill. THANK YOU JILL!
Perfect night (except we got lost and wore the wrong shoes for walking and I started randomly singing ” Jesus take the wheel” by Carrie Underwood. Then tried to hail a cab by saying “Hola”)

I’m such a novice traveler!

    Been tagging along with you.. living vicariously through these photo blogs.. :) What an amazing time!!! Gorgeous gorgeous night shot!! LONG Exposure rocks!!!

    Love you.. and can’t wait to see your sweet face soon soon!

  2. Mark Minks says:

    Great picture! What is it…something like 11 streets that all converge at this round point? I think May/June is the perfect time to visit Paris because of all the spring flowers they plant everywhere and the nice weather…
