Hey~ Chase and I have been up for a LONG time so we just looked at ALL of your pictures and I think you'd better start to eat as much as you can because with all the walking (and photograhing) you are going to waste away to nothing! Great pictures though! Try to get some more people shots - friends and random foreigners. A castle is a castle right? :) Kidding! xok
