Trying not to nap again

Seems like just as good a reason as any.


One of the highlights of the trip.... The NAKED BIKE PARADE!!!

Yes, naked, yes parade. We had decided to take a double decker bus down to Green Park from Oxford Street (in London) and here they came! We were so stunned that it took a minute to realize that there were hundreds of naked people on bikes, so we missed our stop and started snapping pictures. Hence the picture from inside the bus.







Big Ben. I found out that Big Ben is the bell not the clock. Who knew? It was, after all, an educational trip.



I purposefully skipped the pictures from Paris. I hated it last year and I hated it this year, too. If you want to go to France, don't bother with Paris and go to the south of France to Nice or somewhere like that.

Spain was my favorite.
Every little town claims Don Quixote.



















More Alhambra. This is typical of the walkways. They were stunning, as was everything there.



















Stained glass from the the largest mosque west of Mecca, in Cordoba, Spain.
















It was a mosque first, then a temple, then a church, so it has architechture of all three inside. Unfortunately, we were not allowed to use flash, so not many of the pictures came out.



















This is the view from my hotel room in Costa Del Sol (which is the name of the beach, not the town). My roommate and I locked ourselves on the balcony one night. It was crazy trying to get someone's attention to let us back in.
