Our Parisian Holiday in the Year 2007

I was laid off from my job at ABN AMRO Bank on June 29, 2007 - what better way to start a severance package than to take a short vacation, especially since this is what Aviva and I love most; Aviva got me a massage for my birthday, so I'll do that when I get back, what a nice way to unwind from a vacation (then, its back to hunting for my next employment opportunity).

So, we picked Paris for a short, 5 night trip, including an excusion to Chartres to see the cathedral.

I'll be experimenting with a new device, called a Trackstick. It is a passive GPS device that receives location information from GPS satellites, recording its location on a regular basis. You can then load that information into Google Earth or Maps to create a record of where you went, which can be tied to your photographs. I hope this will create yet another way to review what we did and saw, something like a walking tour (well, including the bus to Chartres).

You can look through this travelogue chronologically, by day, sites visited, or cities visited.
