Speaking of Celts
Peter's Paris today has photos of the Roman arena, which isn't as in tact as the ones we saw in Arles and Verona, but nevertheless infuses a sense of history into everyday Parisian life. Peter also notes that Paris is named after the Celtic tribe of Parisii, that lived there during the Roman occupation. Yes, the Gauls were Gaelic.
Speaking of Celts, we were pleasantly surprised to find Celtic ruins during our visit to the Iberian Peninsula in Northern Portugal.
