All brilliant photos. I remember at the gas station, where we were parked illegally, our tour director requesting that only the most dedicated Bond photographers get off the bus, and every single person got out. And of course, there was Bob's classic remark about explaining the cost to his wife: "I spent thousands of dollars, and I saw the gas station." And he, along with the rest of us, was so glad he did!

The Furka Pass photo is great. I found it amazing that our bus driver was able to navigate that giant bus on the narrow road let alone find a place to park so we could get yet another group photo! He is a true professional.

One of my favorite places in France. The Château de Vaux le Vicomte which was used as the Hugo Drax estate in Moonraker.

I know, I was shocked too. I also found out that Eiffel Tower in Vegas is just a replica!

We think we saw these structures in France, but are we sure? Not really. There was quite a bit of alcohol consumed so we may have seen something completely different, or more likely, we were actually in California or Vegas at the time. It was all a bit blurry...

I'm enjoying seeing these photos again. And I absolutely agree about our professional backup team. Our driver took us all over Europe without a wrong turn, and our tour director gets top marks for handling our arrangements with remarkable efficiency. They made a strong contribution to the success of the tour.
