Santa Croce Europe » Italy » Tuscany » Florence
On Monday we visited the Basilica Santa Croce in Florence. It is a beautiful church and one of the oldest in Florence. Later on we went to the European University Insitute, where we will be using the library for research and what not. At the end of the pictures are a few of the countryside and the city of Florence from the EUI. [View Full Entry]

Phill, Katy, and I walked up the mountain in Heidelberg on Monday, Whit Monday since we had off. It was a long and tiring hike that took around 45 minutes, but it was definitely worth it. It was very cool. We had some lunch up there and enjoyed ourselves. It was interesting to see where the Nazis did things and just how far from the city it is set. From the mountain you can see Heidelberg very coolly, like a plane picture. [View Full Entry]

Schwetzigen Europe » Germany
Phill, Katy, and I went to Schwetzigen a couple weekends ago. It was very cool. It is one of the largest castle gardens in Germany, especially the south. It has very many passageways and areas to cut through. It was very cool. We did a tour of the castle as well, but no pictures allowed inside. It was fun, but a little hard to understand everything he said. It was good to go through though. Good times were had by all! We also found a place to eat lunch in; it was a secret hidden place because we werent sure if [View Full Entry]

Phill, Katy, and I ventured to Brussels this past weekend because we had Thursday off for Ascension Day. We took a train, which took us about 5 hours or so. It wasn't bad at all actually. Brussels was fantastic. I loved it tons. The only bad thing was that it rained most of the time we were there, which to me is a reason to go back. We saw Grote Markt, Mannekin Pis, St Michaels Cathedral and four other churches, and much more of the city. It really is a great place to go. We went to go tour the European [View Full Entry]

Katy and I ventured to Amsterdam for the weekend. It was a ton of fun. Amsterdam has more canals than Venice and it was incredibly beautiful. Everywhere you looked it seemed as if boats were parked on grass, but there were canals all over. Everyone seems to have a boat in Amsterdam. It's pretty cool. It was Queen's Day the Saturday we were there, which was tons of fun. There were people in orange everywhere and it was a gigantic party with around 2 million people there for the day. There was also a tulip festival at Kreukenhof, a huge park. [View Full Entry]

Here are the rest of the pictures from Ireland. They include Cashel and the Dingle Peninsula. It was incredibly beautiful there and I would reccommend it to everyone. Also, it reminded me of the Cape quite often. [View Full Entry]

Here are my pictures from Ireland. It was such an amazing place and I would totally love to go back at any other time. It was so great with the people and their accents, the architecture, and the history of the country. Everyone should go to Ireland at some point in their life. It is totally worth it. I will finish up the pictures soon. [View Full Entry]
