Somewhere between Paris and London: Thursday afternoon - Spring. Sydney: Friday morning - Autumn.
"I love catching the Eurostar between London and Paris. Catching the train is so relaxing compared to catching an aeroplane. The train travels from Kings Cross St Pancras in London to Gare du Nord in Paris. Both stations are near the centre of their respective cities. Although the journey time is longer, it's two and a half hours that I have to myself. I read a book or watch a movie or I just look out the window and watch the countryside roll by. Unfortunately, on this trip - my me time was devoted to uni study. I have an essay due soon that I have to finish."

Project 52 is going to have a different flavour over the next few weeks. Instead of London vs Sydney, it's going to be Croatia / Greece vs Japan. Coincidentally, both Sue and I are going to be on holidays over the next few weeks. Sue and J are going to Japan for cherry blossom season. Andrew and I are heading to Croatia and Greece with Mum and Dad for some much needed warmth and sunshine.
I'm not sure if I'll actually manage to post the photos while I'm away, but I will eventually.

Paris: Friday morning - Spring. Sydney: Friday evening - Autumn.
"In Paris, my hotel is about 2km away from the client site. I've been trying to walk to work as much as possible. Andrew and I haven't been playing frisbee lately so even this little bit of exercise is more than welcome. On my way to work I cross a bridge over the river Seine. This is the view from the bridge. There is a little bit of history associated with the island in the middle of the river, the Île des Impressionnistes. The restaurant on the left is where Renoir's "The Luncheon of the Boating Party" was painted and set. It's the painting that features in Amelie. I'm such a sucker for trivia. It gave me a little thrill to know that I was walking past this site every day on my way to work."
