For 2004 our travel was a return to France. For the past few years we have been concentrating traveling in Italy, and enjoying it very much. This year it was time to return to France and visit. We would visit friends we have made through our travels in France, see Paris again and enjoy the great food and wine of the country.
Our travels this year included visits to some of the greatest cloisters in France. We have captured the moments of our visits to the cloisters, as well as other parts of France, in our art/photography card series available at www.marcusmoments.com
