Tag Drei- Dachau Concentration Camp Europe » Germany » Bavaria » Dachau

Arbeit Macht Frei

Hi all! Sorry for such a long delay in FINALLY finishing the rest of my Germany blog!! But here is day 3 of Germany, which was actually last sunday! Britt and I got up bright and early at 7 am to make sure we had enough time to see Dachau and do a few other things before having to leave. We got ready, packed up our things, and headed down to the delicious continental breakfast... It probably in reality was not delicious... but compared to what we have been eating in Italy, we were in heaven! After we ate our combined [View Full Entry]

Roma= Scum of the Earth. Europe » Italy » Lazio » Rome

This last weekend Alyssa's mom and dad were in town so Brittni, Alyssa and I went down to Rome since we haven't yet.... Shameful, I know haha. But, I absolutely HATED it. Aside from seeing the Colosseum, the Pantheon, the Spanish Steps, the Trevi Fountain, the Vatican, Sistine Chapel, St. Peter's Basilica, and all those other tourist attractions.... Rome was horrible. Dirty. Dirty. Dirty. Expensive. Full of tourists. Crime. Ghetto. Brittni were walking from Alyssa's parent's hotel after a day of sightseeing to go check into our hotel. We had to walk about a mile and on the way there w [View Full Entry]

Tag Zwei. Europe » Germany » Bavaria » Fussen

Schloss Neuschwanstein
A view of the castle from the foothills in Fussen.

Hello everyone! Sorry about how long these entries are taking me!! But here is the journal from day two in Germany (Saturday). Britt and I woke up at 7:30 am and went to eat the GLORIOUS free continental breakfast that our hotel served. It was probably gross in reality, but to us it was the most delicious feast EVER! haha After breakfast we headed out to the train station (called Hofbahnhof, Munich's central station). Since I have done a lot of research about Schloss (Castle) Neuschwanstein near the little town of Fussen in my 4 years of studying German, I absolutely [View Full Entry]

Reise Nach Deutschland. Europe » Germany » Bavaria » Munich

I apologize for not updating in so long but the last week has been crazy! Last Tuesday and Wednesday nights I got a total of 7 hours of sleep… Having to stay up until 3am and 4am to study for a Classical Architecture exam and Italian language test. It was really draining and I basically had nothing exciting to write about on my blog. And for those of you wondering what the title of this journal means, it says "travel to germany" in german. I just hope I said that accurately, its been 2 years since I took German! I will [View Full Entry]

Mono... Bronchitis...I'm Next! Europe » Italy » Tuscany » Florence

Ciao! I haven't been able to update in a few days because the internet that we are usually able to steal from our neighbors has officially been cut off!! Horrible, I know... so I had to wait until today to use my computer at school where they have wireless. It is a pain to lug all of my school books, art supplies, and lap top for 25 minutes to school! And for those of you that are still not able to access my private blogs, you need to create an account with travelblog.com and once you have done that, e-mail me [View Full Entry]

Duomo Europe » Italy » Tuscany » Florence

Hello family & friends! And a special hello to the Fallers!! It was great to hear from you! I hope everything is well with the family! Please give Justy a big hug for me! :) For art appreciation today, we climbed the duomo! It is over 400 stairs up the extremely narrow, enclosed tunnel in between the outer and inner walls of the dome! So crazy to think about what famous historical people walked up the same steps and overlooked the city 600 years ago! And I will be changing the status of my blog to private after this entry is [View Full Entry]
