Galleries LaFayette - Shop till you drop

The most famous department store in Paris is Galleries La Fayette. It is worth a visit just to stand under the huge glass dome.

Have a glass of champagne at the top of the escalator, or drop into one of the restaurants.

When you are finished buying your bling, slipover to the Opera Garnier and have a look at the sumptuousness on display there.

It’s all fun for a day in Paris.

More from France

Dinard, France

If Saint-Malo is for pirates, Dinard is for elegance! Situated in a lovely position overlooking the Rance Estuary, the beautiful 19th century villas are just made for the aristocracy.

The walled town of Saint-Malo, once a haven for the pirates paid by the French government to harrass the English across the channel, now plays host to the thousands of tourists that flock there every summer.

Reporters Memorial, Bayeux

The Reporters Memorial in Bayeux is an avenue of white remembrance slabs of stone, each seven feet high, and each recording the names of reporters who were killed reporting conflict.

Healesville Wildlife Sanctuary - a picture of two birds sitting on a branch. See Australian native animals

Australian Native Animals at the Healsville Wildlife Sanctuary – Victoria

You can see Australian native animals at The Healesville Animal Sanctuary – an amazing place a couple of hours drive from Melbourne in Victoria, Australia. Here you will experience up-close encounters with a range of Australian wildlife, including kangaroos, dingoes, koalas, birds, snakes, and the strange platypus.

Skiathos, Greece

Skiathos is a small Greek island with some historical significance – it was here in 1807 that the blue and white Greek flag was first flown. The ceremony took place at the Evangelistria Monastery which is about 10 minutes out of town (or around 2 hours if you walk).

The Stick Shed

The Stick Shed in Murtoa is a second World War grain storage area so unique that it has pride of place on the Australian Heritage Register. Who would have thought there would be a forest of mountain ash trees in the Wimmera.
