Sainte-Chapelle – Paris Highlights

Sainte-Chapelle was an utterly unexpected delight. The stained glass in this chapel is breath-taking.

Jet d'eau

Jet d’eau dominates the Geneva shore. This impressive 140 metre tall fountain of water is always worth seeing.

Just outside our main window is a gutter. It is not a traditionally sought after view. Sometimes, as in July, we reap a little reward. Birds flock around the city and swoop into and out of the courtyards.

Fallen Tree

A large tree fell in our local park. The tree’s fall was unexpected and the result of high winds. Since then mushrooms have bloomed on the stump.

Autumn Colours

Autumn is putting on a final show for the year. The leaves are colourful and the evening views are captivating.

Problems with OS X 10.11 – El Capitan

This year Apple released OS X 10.11, as known as El Capitan. This has not been a good update for me.

Versailles Water Fountains – Paris Highlights

Watch the mirror fountain perform in Paris’ grand Versailles gardens.

Another Street Vacuum

Having wondered if Brussels alone used street vacuums, I spotted another. This time in Dijon, France.

Lift in the Louvre – Paris Distractions

Surrounded by the galleries, collections, and crowds of Paris’s Louvre I got distracted. The central lift in the glass covered courtyard is great.

Arc de Triomphe – Paris Highlights

Another highlight from our trip to Paris, France, the Arc de Triomphe.
