C™ in Plymouth.UK + Toulon.FR

CTroyMathis · #1 Posted **Jun 21, 2009, 2:51 PM**

I spent way too much time getting the drink on and very little time taking photos. I'll eventually get around to posting more from Toulon that I grabbed while there. Most photos are pretty random, especially in Plymouth. Some were from moving vehicles in Toulon. The 241 specials in England were too difficult to pass up. The pubs rocked. Bothering to take photos, not so much the priority! So, Plymouth didn't get it's due justice. Oh well, next time.

Oh yeah, this is the first photo thread I've done up since late 2005. I'm a bit rusty.

Plymouth.UK (Middle of May 2K9)

Toulon.FR (End of May 2K9)

That be all.

My 7 year old battle cam is officially dead as of today. Looks like I'm finally justified to go shopping for a good camera. When you have 3 kiddos, getting a new camera always sits too low on the priority list, haha. Hmm, I wonder if Manama.Bahrain has some good deals! : )

Great shots! I've never seen either of these cities. Enjoyed the tour.

Well that was a good surprise. I almost forgot you were a member here.

Glad the little 'tour' was given a look by you all. . .

And, yes, wk - I've been rather quiet for a bit, eh (read years). . . haha.

Uh...you're back!!!

Belated close-out of the rest of the Toulon.FR photos. Sorry for the, uh, ten month delay. Cheers.

First, for fun, we'll start off with the trip to "METRO" to get beer to start us off and some other food. Hmm. . .

Then continue along. . .

Okay, really, that's almost all for this one. . .

Cool photos. Now here's two cities we hardly ever see.

So thats what the Plymouth with the accent looks like. Good stuff.

And Toulon was a surprise. Dense for sure. Thanks for tossing in a couple of ship pics too.

If you're photo thread rusty, you must have used WD40 on this one. Lookin' good. Thanks CTM.

btw, be careful in Manama. I think my ship set back U.S. Navy and Bahrainian relations for decades. Of course all that "fun" happened over 30 years ago, so you should be OK now.

Toulon with a metropolitan area of more than 600,000 inhabitants in 2007 is the 10th largest in France.
