Walk in Paris #3
At the end of the summer, I had to be in Paris for one day. I walked around, first to Montmartre and the Basilique du Sacré-Coeur. Then I walked to the Centre George Pompidou before going to the Gare de Lyon railway station.
Walk in Paris #2
During the summer, I went to Paris for 1 day. I just walked around, starting at Gare de Lyon. The city was as grimy as ever, although the sun showed up in the afternoon.
Walk in Amsterdam (Day 2)
On my second day in Amsterdam, I only had the morning free, so I checked out of my hotel early and walked around at random.
