Goodbye Paris, Hello Lille

... in Paris. I really had so much luck with the weather and the city itself was beautiful. The last few days I visited Montmartre, the picturesque artsy part of town on a hill, where I visited the gorgeous Church of Sacree Coeur, as well as the cafe where one of my favorite movies, Amelie, was filmed. I took lots of pictures and arrived there as I listened to it's amazing soundtrack.

I also ...

Adventures on a ghost train...

... br>Yesterday on my way to work, I was sat next to a couple of respectable looking people until they got off and were replaced by an old wrinkly smelly man on one side and an old smelly woman on the other side. The woman smelt like very very very old cheese, and had a carrier bag that she kept looking into and feeling inside it for something but she never once brought out whatever it was so I never got to find out... perhaps it was the very very very old cheese.

Being a tourist...

This week I have had the chance to finally be a tourist and explore my city! I planned to travel and explore France during this holiday but as it turned out I couldn't afford to do that, and there was a lot of Lille that I had yet to see (and that is still true!).

The Musée de la Piscine in Roubaix, just north of Lille on the metro, is a fantastic museum which I took my parents to. It goes by two names: La Piscine and Musée d'Art et ...

Aussi occupé que d'un castor

... we stumbled upon a circus tent and after enquiring, bought tickets for the next showing. The Citadelle also holds the city's zoo, which is huge and also free, so while waiting to go to the circus we took a wander through the zoo. While cooing over all of the animals we stopped to sing "compare the meerkat . com" to the meerkats, before realising that a British couple were standing next to us!

The circus was incredible, despite some cruel ...

Along The Clay Road

... deliberately in the middle of the road. As I approached the group I sensed a buzz in the air. They had found a mortar shell slightly exposed and weather beaten, a relic of the battle that took William Norton's life. There was a strange excitement amongst the pilgrims and they were not in a hurry to board the bus. They were milling around looking for more evidence. Shrapnel balls, shards of medal, blasted pieces of rock were everywhere. We were face to face with history.

The Western Front - Fromelles

... Australians were fully engaged as a fighting force in France. Just 50m down the road towards the Allied Trench line is a cemetery - the only fully Australian cemetery on the Western Front. Other cemeteries contain a mixture of nationalities - this one contains only Australian. Although this one is different. It is two mass graves - containing the remains of 410 Aussies. The fields were littered with the remains of the ...

From Santiago de Compostela to the Channel

... as if he were a less faithful disciple and less caring about the well-being of mankind. Jesus promised him that no one would enter heaven unless they had visited his shrine at least once, alive or dead - in case you don't make it before you die, a member of your family can do it for you after your death.
I hope you appreciate I'm doing my good deed for the day in giving you this information, after all I wouldn't want you to miss out, seeing as I've ...

Day Two: Boulougne to Arras (via Hesdin)

... that my hostel membership card is still with the nice girl in Boulougne. A family set the fire alarm off about 10 pm by burning their dinner in the kitchen. I have been asleep for at least an hour by then. I pass a girl with the most amazing matching pink slippers and dressing gown outfit on the stairs.

The Somme

The Reason Sometimes, you can't let things get you down, and with my recent health issues, it can be quite hard living life with only one arm. People tell me to be positive, but you can't always, so I decided to keep living the David way of life. So armed with the knowledge that I had a spot booked on a train to Calais, we quickly put a trip together. We decided to double the fun, so we grabbed Ed and Lucia of Zento fame, Euro here we come. Ed had other ...
