European Vacation

We're back from vacation and trying to get used to real life again. Here are a couple pictures - we took hundreds so it's a little hard to narrow down what to use, but I figure most people would rather see a picture of us than pictures you can see in any history book :)

This one was taken in Nice on the French Riviera. Interestingly, there wasn't sand on the beaches - it was pebbles. Didn't look very comfortable for laying out on.


This one is from Pompeii. Pompeii was one of the highlights of the entire vacation. We had a great tour guide who did a fabulous job of explaining what we were seeing. It is hard to fathom how old the remains are and also to believe that there are people who once again live in the shadow of the still active volcano.

Karen-
I can only see the Nice picture. There's just space where the Pompeii picture's supposed to go. Glad you all had a good time. Welcome back!
