France Avril 01

I took my friend Jen Ciomek with me to France this year. These are only the pictures from the digital camera. I have tons more at home. Come visit me to see the rest!

	<Family shot: My aunt Thoa, my father Viet, and myself.
The Pont Alexandre is one of the most beautiful bridges in Paris. >			I don't think we're really supposed to be posing there; but it makes a good shot, dont' you think?
				< My cousin Thuy-Anh.
Scenery on the drive on the way to Mont St. Michel >		Surprise visit to my uncle Hung > You should have seen his mouth drop when I walked into his restaurant in Fougere which happened to be on our way.
	< Le Chateau de Fougere		The reason we look happy is that it only took about 5 U-turns to find this place.
	Mont St. Michel! We finally got there. It was a bit windy... Give me an umbrella and call me Mary Poppins.
La Grande Rue, the main street inside the walls. Unlike its name, it's actually not very large. >
		< St. Michel
	< My favorite driver! Jen (who really hates rounadabouts now.)
		St. Malo
Back in Fougere, Jen learns how to fold a napkin into a lotus flower (she didn't do that one.) >			< Family shots again, my uncle and little cousin. >
		Chartres That building over there is the Post Office. >
	Lunch au Bar Parisien		The Cathedral >


Rain, rain, rain... >
	< Jen at the Bistro Romain trying to figure out the way home on a Metro map.		< My cousin Huy
La Sainte Chapelle	This is my favorite place to visit, I wish I had more pictures to put up, but that would require effort. Trust me, it's worth the bother to find it.		<The columns are in the lower level which the common folk could access. The stained glass is in the upper part of the chapel, reserved for the king. >
		My cousin Kim, her son Lloyd, and his father Harold. He took his first steps while I was there!
