Over the last couple of weeks I’ve been a lot of places and as the weather is getting nicer my pictures have been improving. I thought I should share some pictures from my most recent trip to Paris in which I saw Versailles, Père Lachaïse Cemetery, and Montmartre. In addition, my second trip to Île-de-Machines (with the famous mechanical elephant I have been longing to see), Île-Aux-Moines, and Vannes with IES.
