This trip took us to the Mulhouse Train Museum AKA "Cité du Train", the second day, to a jam packed tour of sites that include: The Strasbourg Cathedral or Cathedrale Strasbourg where we saw the Astronomical Clock and the locks around Strasbourg, The Citadelle de Bitche AKA Zitadelle Bitche, Mont St. Odile & Haut Koenigsbourg Castle both high atop mountains, and to Lembach, France to see the line of underground concrete bunkers of the Ligne Maginot Ouvrage Du Four A Chaux AKA Maginot Line or Ligne Maginot that was named after French Minister of Defense André Maginot.

  • Travel to London England and the Lake District (try doing some: london tourism,  tower of london,  house of parliment, lake district uk)

    UK - England

    Multi-Map UK   London Transport

    A month after the death of Princess Dianna I visited London, England for the first time. London has become a city that I love and visited several times in the 90's. The five day tour took us to all of the major sites known to tourists from all over the world.

    We were able to make this whirl wind tour because we had an unlimited pass to ride on The Tube or Underground (public subway and transportation system) quickly and easily. The Tube allowed us to descend deep into the ground of the Victorian hubs numerous times and ascend five miles across town minutes later which made everything possible. A similar cab ride took us an hour one time that week after hours. Because of this we packed plenty into the short trip including: The British Museum, Buckingham Palace and Saint James Park, we sat through a session of the British Parliament and visited the Westminster Cathedral and shopped at the famous Harrods Department Store. During this trip I purchased a sketch at Sotheby's London Auction House on 34-35 New Bond Street and many other treasures from Liberty's of London, etc.

    In June and July of 1998, I spent 23 days traveling throughout China. Up North we stayed in Beijing & visited the Forbidden City, saw the Summer Palace, the Ming Tombs and hiked up the Great Wall of China. Next we flew on China Air to Wuhan to start a 5 day cruise up the Yangtze River for 260 miles visiting the 3 Gorges and Dam. Next we flew to Xian where we visited the site of the discovery of the Terracotta Warriors. No trip to China would be complete unless you visit the Guilin Region where the mountains look like spikes shooting to the sky as you cruise the River Li through the mountainous region. Then on to Hong Kong with visits to Victoria Peak and the fishing village on Hong Kong Island. The trip wrapped up with a flight into Shanghai China where we visited the Bund and saw the gardens famous in that area.
