Norway was a trip that is worth taking. Norway is in north Europe and is on the western side of Scandinavian Peninsula. Norway has many natural resource's that they can use. Norway has forests, an abundance of fish, uses a green alternative by using hydroelectric power. with these resources Norway makes money by making boats, working with chemicals, metals, mining, fishing and selling fish. Norway is the second largest fish exporter only China exports more fish. Since i told you about the business i guess i should mention that the climate is pretty cold because Norway is classified as a Arctic Tundra climate, there are many prehistoric glaciers still around Norway preserved by the cold. Norway also has waterfalls. As a mentioned earlier in this blog Norway is on a peninsula and as we all know ... read more

Whoa baby! Rome what a place. Rome is full of hills the center of Rome is made of seven hills. The hills are Aventine Hill, Caelian Hill, Capitiline Hill, Esquiline Hill, Palitine Hill, Quirinal Hill, and Viminal Hill. There is one river that goes through historic Rome, that river is called the Aniene river. Rome as a wonderful Mediterranean climate. The Mediterranean climate is hot dry summers and wet and cold winters. My favorite place to go was probably St. Peter's Square. The design was so cool there is one Obelisk that was brought to Rome from Egypt on the largest ship in the world at the time! They have a famous fountain in the square also the fountain is famous because it is the largest fountain in the world. The square was so pretty ... read more

WHOA! Can't believe that i am in the city of lights with my friends. The geography of Paris is amazing,mostly flat plains or gently rolling hills in north and west; remainder is mountainous, especially Pyrenees in south, Alps in east. The Eiffel Tower is amazing all of the moon light shinning upon it. Cameras flashing every couple of seconds. People laughing and having a good time. What a great time to be in Paris is when the moon is full and everybody is happy. The temperature in paris is similar to that of the Unites States with it's cool winters and it's mild summers. The economy is amazing well it is if you live in France, their money is worth more than our dollar so everything costs more for us. But, hey, it's worth it. ... read more

After we left the air port we found a wonderful luxury hotel called Radisson edwardian. It was one-hundred dollars per night. We had an amazing View of the Tower Bridge. The beds and service was very adequate of our needs. We still had the problem of Nicks bags and that is something that the hotel could not help us with unfortunately. The airport called as at our hotel the next day and said they had sent Nick's bag home instead of calling us and telling us to come pick it up. Poor Nick we had to buy everything that he needed for the trip. The things that missed most was his lucky pink hat, but he got over that and we bought a different one that was a good replacement for the moment. We explored ... read more

I took the 6 A.M plane and arrived at the Heathro airport about 5 P.M. THe plane ride was ok, my friends were kinda restless and wanted o walk all around the plan. Nick, and my teacher mr. Livingston were with me. they thought that the trip was over priced. When we arrived at the airport we eventually found out that Nicks bags were sent to the wrong airport so we had to find some new temporary cloths to wear until we got the bags back.... read more
