One more time, the appreciation of so many help from people just great! |

French Riviera - Rooftops
The escenario from the hill is just great, isn`t? This photo is somewhere between St. Tropez and Monaco.

Germany - first camping site
Day 1. We found this campsite at 2 in the morning on our first day in Europe after landing in Dusseldorf. This spot is along the bank of the Seine on the outskirts of the city. |

Isola di Elba - Italy
We arrived at this beautiful island off the coast of Italy after a chance meeting with a young man from Britain who was also travelling by bike. In this photo we had spent hours pushing our bikes up the mountain. The view was worth it. |
Latin Quarter - Paris
This is a typical corner of Paris, incredibly picturesque. We sat for an hour at this point, with the scene in front of our eyes ever-changing. Nothing had prepared me for the wonder of Paris. |

Castle in Maastricht, The Netherlands
Maastricht is a city in the southeastern tip of Holland. This peaceful scene was just around the corner from a bustling, crowded area of shops, restaurants, street artists and vendors, filled with people having fun. |
Marlene-Castle-Belgium
At this point in our journey, we were still enthralled to come upon castles in the rural countryside. At this one, we could only stand outside the gate and gaze inside. |

Marlene-Ecaussines
Ecaussines, Belgium. This incredibly picturesque town was a lovely site for a rest. Marlene is sitting on a wall beside a castle which we were unable to visit it as they were closed for lunch. |
Marlene-French Riviera-writing
Menton is the first city after crossing the border from Italy. I wanted to fall to my knees and kiss the ground on returning to France. This lovely little city is clean, welcoming and lovely. |

Marlene-Gunther-kitchen
Gunther was our host for two nights. He's an organ player for an Anglican Church in a beautiful little city of 60,000 people in Germany. We both found him to be a very interesting person. |
Marlene-Probst party-a
Gunther's next door neighbours invited us over for a typical German dinner of weinerschnitzel and beer. The party is in full swing with Barb and her husband, the janitor of the church. It was one of the funnest nights on the trip. |

Mill House
River crossing under the bridge somewhere between Germany and The Netherlands. |
M-O-Ecaussines
Omar and Marlene sitting in front of a castle outside of Ecaussines, Belgium. Beautiful landscape. |

Montmartre - Paris
A very rare splurge at a sidewalk cafe in the Montmartre area of Paris, high above the city where all the famous artists lived and where current artists still ply their trade. The Moulin Rouge and Pigalle are nearby. |
Nice-cookie shop
Nice, France has an Old Village section that is filled with shops and restaurants. |
