Is that on the American side? Talk about exploitation. The photo with the rainbow is amazing. I guess that is quite impressive when you see that for the first time. The view from the restaurant is great. I bet that place is crowded in the summertime. You went there at that right time. Thanks for these photos. They were quite enlightening.Irenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05043376053971475659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6759020785662372535.post-83898246219589381412012-05-13T17:02:41.510-04:002012-05-13T17:02:41.510-04:00Such a good idea!
