On September 4th, 2011 we enjoyed a lunch cruise aboard a tour boat on the Seine River in Paris. It was somewhat cloudy & a little rain also was falling. Here's a few pictures as we went past the Cathedral of Notre Dame plus one extra that might be of interest. Bob

While on one of our road trips in September 2017 we passed through the small town of Vegreville, located in central Alberta, Canada. In Elks park they feature a giant Easter Egg. The Vegreville egg is a giant sculpture of a Pysanka, a Ukrainian style Easter Egg. The egg, which rotates, is 31 ft long and 3 1/2 stories high. It's the 2nd largest Pysanka in the world. The biggest was built in Kolomyia, Ukraine in 2000. Enjoy! Bob


Nice shots Bob like them both!!

Wonderful start, Pat...love the subway window.

I know about the only thing I have that would fit the challenge are
some images of our granddaughters hunting Easter eggs, and I'm
pretty sure I've posted them before, but here are a couple.

(This should be eggciting....)


Nice set Tim

In response to Pat's announcement of the temporary suspension of the "Egg and Oval Shaped" challenge because of the horrific fire
at Notre Dame Cathedral and her call to post pictures of Notre Dame or of other cathedrals, I'd like to repost two images of the Basilica of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, also know as Conewago Chapel.

Here's an exert from Wikipedia: "The Basilica of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, also known as Conewago Chapel, is a Roman Catholic minor basilica dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus located in Conewago Township (Adams County), Pennsylvania. The church is under the circumscription of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Harrisburg.

The Basilica was built between 1785 and 1787, and is constructed of brownstone with three-foot-thick walls. It measures ​2 1⁄2 stories high, three bays wide and five bays deep. It features a Federal style entrance with a semi-circular arched doorway and an 80-foot-high spire, added in 1873. Attached to the chapel is a three-story rectory, also built in 1787. It is the oldest Roman Catholic church constructed of stone in the United States. Prince Gallitzin spent the first five years of his priesthood at Conewago Chapel from 1795 to 1799.

It was decreed a minor basilica on June 30, 1962. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975."

OK, I'm stretching the "oval-shaped" limitation, but I was gonna include beer barrels too, but didn't.
