Photos! London, Paris, Switzerland

First few pics are now up.

See my FB profile for more pics. I've found ferry rides to be good for filtering pics. Theoretically train rides would be too but I spent those meeting and talking to people, figuring out the next city, or sleeping.

I'm gonna try to post pics in order, a few highlights from each city, and maybe jump to post my pics from today in Santorini.
