It's About time!








Well sorry I have been slacking on my blogging lately. I am still trying to get back into the swing of things since our trip. It was amazing. I posted a lot of photos on facebook so I don't know if I will post that many on here, just because it takes so long for them to upload. :)
Let me start off by saying everyone needs to go to Europe at some point in your life and experience their culture. It was so neat to see what the other side of the world is like and how they do things over there. A few things we recognized right away were:
-they are not motivated by time or money
-they have cappuccino's and cigarettes after every meal
-they live with less and are very happy
-they are crazy drivers, their traffic laws are just suggestions
-they do not believe in the saying "invading your personal bubble" of space. I think I was rubbed on, brushed upon, more than I have ever been in my life. I wanted to turn around and tell them excuse me, can you back up like 5 feet away from me. Apparently, the European people don't mind people being right next to them while in line or walking on the street.
We loved all places but Rome tugged at my heart a little more. But I really enjoyed them all so much! I loved the Colluseum. It was amazing to see. The Vatican and St. Peter's Bascillica was also very amazing. We lived off pizza and ham and cheese sandwiches while there. We also enjoyed the chocolate croissants.
I will post more later on Venice and Greece and Cambridge.
