_____________________________

The France - England trip has come and gone. All that remains are the memories that are already beginning to fade, and photographs which could not capture the moment of pure bliss at just being in Paris, and walking around Cotswold in a fairytale..

It's difficult to say exactly what I've learnt from it all. Independence (for all its worth), resilience (because of the sprained ankle), not to run on the streets of Paris (or anywhere for that matter), friends (who stay with you no matter what, literally!), and perhaps a fervent admiration and wonderment at the amazing, breathtaking architecture and raw beauty of Parisian life and street.

All that, and maybe more..

Photos are up!! (:

I'm going back there, someday...


_______________________________________

Choir camp photos uploaded. Yes, finally. Sorry for the very lousy photography skills. And the weird candid shots.. (gallery\choir!)

Off to Paris-uk in a day! I am positively dying of excitement. And negatively dying of the fever bug. What a time to come and infect me.. Otherwise, I've done with shopping, I am all packed, and ready to go! Be gone for 2 weeks!

And I'll be back...
