More Europe, 1979*

The d'Orsay wasn't in the train station in those days













Montmarte, Basilica of the Sacred Heart; still where it
was then



















No longer there department: the Cafe Wagner (commemorating the infamous
Paris  debut of Tannhauser) across from the old opera; I remember a young
store clerk laughing at our pronunciation of "opera"
















And on to Versailles


















And the Loire...













With many fine pique-niques along the
way



















The amphitheater at Autun that we skipped last July












Our first visit to Lauterbrunnen













At the cemetery in Zermatt, the grave of the famous Swiss guide Michel Croz,
who died in the Matterhorn's first descent














After three days and two freezing nights, this was all we
got to see of the Matterhorn



































































To be continued...
