Grand Central Station in New York City

New York’s Metropolitan Transit Authority is celebrating the 100th anniversary of Grand Central Station.
Cheers and here’s to 100 more — at least!
Here’s a shot of the station taken on a visit back in February 2011.

Across the Thames

London’s new tallest building, The Shard, was opened to the public this week. This is a view of the landmark as it was back in September October, from the observation platform at St. Paul’s Cathedral.
The Shard itself has an observation deck … I’ll be sure to stop by when I get back to London for my next visit.

Illuminer notre esprit

Notre-Dame-de-Paris Cathedral. Never made it to the observation level of the church. Perhaps, if I ever go back to Paris …
