HOME!

So I did return home a way long time ago but I wanted to check in and tell you all that its OVER! Stop looking at this site! I am writing on facebook now and that is where most of my pictures are so add me as a friend and I will tell you all about it.
Seriously though it was one of the most fun experiances of my whole lifetime and I will never ever forget it.

The Changing of the Guards

WOW! What a show we saw today. It was really cool because the guards came and marched around and then the bands started to play. It was really cool, it there were two different bands playing and it was like they were dueling. It was really fun, and we were able to walk around after. I got my picture taken with a different kind of guard one that was walking around letting people take pictures and stuff, and giving information about the guard. It was really fun. The dueling bands played two well known songs, but those will remain a secret for now, I did get most of it on video. The quality of the video may not be good but it was fun to record anyways. After that we got our tickets for the London eye and Madam tousauds, the wax museum, and in it I met many of the famous people of the world, including some serial killers, and I was almost beheaded by a guillotine. It was really cool. After that we freshened up some, and went to the London Eye, and then had some sushi for dinner, so good by the way, and then we rode around on a double decker bus for a bit, til we got to an underground "tube" system. It was a really good day today.
Drop me a line if you can, to whoever reads this, and let me know how things are going in your life. Miss everyone!

The Mother Land

Here we are in great britain! It has been so much fun these last few days. We got to see versailles and the louvre, and the champs de elysee and the arc de triumphe and we went up 284 steps, be pround of us, (Where I sang a french song I learned in high school). It was really fun, the mona lisa is really cool but a little over rated. It was worth it though. Versailles is amazing! I Loved it all! After that we took a plane to get to great britain because it was actually cheaper than the train, and after an hour plane ride and over 3 hours standing in line, collectively in france and then the UK we finally made it to our hotel. We took a little nap and we are off again to places unknown. Well actually we know where we are going but it sounds better that way. I love this place! I love the accents and the fact that I can read all the signs and that it is So cool. I have been pronouncing things in the mainland european way for so long its weird to pronounce them in an english manner now, which is very different. Well, off again.

Its a small world after all

So,
did anyone else realize there is a Disneyland Paris? Mom remindedd me of this and we went yesterday to go and make sure the rumors were true, after waiting in line and seeing all the beloved characters we know and love, we walked through the gates, and found ourselves on MAINSTREET USA!!!!! How cool right, We looked at each other and mom exclaimed, `we`re home!' It was so much fun to walk around and go on all of the rides including, space misson 2, indiana jones and the temple of peril, big thunder mountain, tower of terror twice, and pirates of the carribean! We got home at midnight thouroughly exhausted but happy, everyone should be really proud of mom because she went on all the rides, even the really scary ones! I think she was braver than me, though we should have gotten the picture from the tower of terror ride, its a pretty good one. Mom has her eyes closed. Anyways just a short note today, I think we are getting some food and then going shopping for a little while.

Paris, the night train

Mom and I were so blessed to have caught that night train! We were so excited about it. We get onto the train and find we have a cabinmate already. He was about 25 6 foot 5 and his name was charles. He was really nice and we chated for awhile, honestly it was really nice to have him be on the train with us already because just as we were all dozing off to sleep the train stopped to let on other passengers and two men made thier way into our cabin, they were rather loud. I agree with mom when she said that it was a good thing charles was there because we talked to him already and his presence was comforting with these two strangers. Anyways our trip was smooth after that. Mom slept well she woke up only once to my 5 or 6 times. I dont know why, but I was a little restless. I guess I was nervous about our safety still. We woke up coming into paris, said good-bye to charles, and wished him well with his ex-girlfriend adventures and things, and walked off the train all in all, it was a really good experiance. Very educational, and I guess it was pretty fun. Well thats all for now, I will write again soon!

Greetings from Paris

So we had such and adventure getting here! We left Venice which was sad but nessecary in order to continue our travels. We got to Milan and really enjoyed the Train station! We didn't have time to see anything though sadly enough. Next was the leg from Milan to Nice. This one was really long and we were excited about it but not excited for the length. We got to genova to find that our train was 40 minutes late. Now normally this wouldn't be a big deal except our connecting train was scheduled to leave from Nice 50 min after the first entered. We were sweating bullets but prayed that it would all work out ok. We got to the stop right before Nice, monte carlo for any of those interested is a very pretty place, on the sea shore and we saw many different beautiful resorts all along the travel from Genova, the French Riviera is the right name for that stretch of land. We stood up and got ready to run because we literally had 2 min until the next train to paris would leave. We got off the train and saw everything in french, but I found the number of the platform we were to be on, and headed the wrong way, mom stopped me though...and we ran down the stairs to the other side, with all of our luggage, bruises 11-20 for megan, and came up on the other side to find... oh the suspense, that the connecting train had not even gotten there yet! oh man it was great, we got to relax for at least ten minutes and we didn't even care. Well time up, I will tell you about that train later!

One more update

OK, Mom reminded me that none of you know where we are now, we are in VENICE!!!!! How cool right!? We went all through rome and saw the collesium and a few churches and everything, then we went to the vatican city, which is NOT Roma, to anyone who is curious. and saw the sistine chapel twice. Then florence which is beauitful and hot, now we are in venice! It is so cool and the Island of murano is fun. We were in a venitian thunderstorm, sweet, it was fun to see the pigeons scatter.
Love to all!
