2004 Trip to Europe to see the Transit of Venus


I intend to keep working on this page. I plan on adding some descriptions of the experiences we had (both good and bad) and some of the great meals we enjoyed. So, if you're interested, check back every once in awhile to see what I've added.

(The pictures look best when you use a resolution of 1280 x 1064.)


Pictures from the first three days in Paris. We flew into Paris from San Francisco.

Pictures from the three days we spent in Southern France. We visited Bordeaux, Marseilles, Nice and Monaco.

Pictures from Italy. We met up with Alan and Cheryl Tokunaga in Rome.

Pictures from the ferry we took from Bari to Patras.

Pictures from Santorini, the island where we went to watch the transit.

Pictures from Athens. We spent three days in Athens after the transit.

I wrote a narrative describing some of the things that went wrong.
It's not finished, but you can read what I have, if you're interested.
