"MEL'S WORLD" Melly77's Profile

The Tower Bridge

We were very lucky to have such beautiful sunsets in January! Such a spectacular bridge. It is also worth walking across to get some unusual views of it.

Tower of London

Even in Winter, this place is packed out with tourists. I would advise to give the guided tour a miss unless you enjoy walking at a snail's pace, struggling to hear and staying in a group of no less than 100 odd people.
You get a better perspective of the place wondering at your own pace. The crown jewels are amazing as was the armoury.

Beautiful Paris

The Eiffel tower at night

Wow, what beautiful sights are in Paris!
We could not take enough photos of the tower at night. Simply stunning. Definitely worth booking as part of a group unless you like to wait in line for hours and hours.

Eiffel tower twinkling

It even twinkles! heh heh

French Riviera

Such spectacular scenery around the Riviera. Definitely worth a slow drive around this area. This photo was taken in Winter so it is just as beautiful at that time of year.

Gardens of Versailles

Versailles palace gardens

Wow if you like immaculate gardens then this is the place to go. The gardens are so ornate. Unfortunately many of the statues are covered up in Winter to protect them from the frost.
