Early-ish travel photos

I had uploaded these travel pictures some time ago, but only now remembered to “announce” them.

The trip to the Philippines in early 1997 marked my first overseas venture. I used my then-falling apart, now-defunct Ricoh SLR camera. I originally digitized the pictures with a flatbed scanner (thanks, Jed!), but I’d like to redo it sometime, if I can find a scanner that would handle 35mm film negatives. If anyone has pointers on such a tool, do let me know! (I could also clean out the annoying mirror crack that appears in most of the pictures; can crop only so much.)

Philippines (1997)

In late spring of 2002, we took a trip to France, my first time on the European continent. Most of the time was spent in Paris and Provence. We started and ended the trip with brief stops in England.

France and a bit of the United Kingdom (2002)

A request directed at architecture / city history buffs: Name this building! Seriously, neither of us remember its name or location, other than being in Paris. At first I thought it was the Panthéon or Opéra, but I’m not so sure…

Which famous Parisian building is this?

Alas, no related posts.

    It’s not the opera. It might be the Pantheon, but I have the idea that it’s some government building. Not sure though.
