Can I get an early request in for Paris?

I would like to see a picture of a windmill to get you in the spirit of the Amsterdam meeting. Bonus points if you find all three of them.

Today...the Duomo. The second largest gothic cathedral in the world after the cathedral in Seville, Spain. This version the church was founded in 1386.

It is fucking HUGE and AWESOME

(and like every other monument we have seen, half-covered in scaffolding)

Also today:

The very lovely Galleria Vittorio Emanuele - an upmarket shopping mall, very la-de-da. We spend a lot of money on coffee here just so we could be warm for a bit:

Burger King for lunch It was VERY busy, they seem to like the change from pizza...

Spidey-tings for Ballzon. They seem to really love the Spiderman here for some reason:

You gotta love it when the work goes to The Lowest Bidder.

Nope. Actually I haven't seen or heard any news of any description since I left London ... oops

Good thing we're over here and not over there. Besides I am Super A1 Healthy so I should be all good and not catch anything when I get back

Montmarte was actually the part of Paris I liked most.
