Journey to Spain

Photos taken by Theresa, a 49 year old Finance Manager from Kent, between 2nd-14th August 2010.

Train journey to Spain. Richard and I took these photos of our journey from Ashford International to Granada Spain via Paris and Madrid. We chose to go by train, as we had been many times before by plane, and wanted to do something different to celebrate my 50th birthday in August 2010.

Across Paris by Metro to Paris D' Australitz. Saw this Segway, which all the station staff seem to use. Amazing!
