Venice.....after a 22 hour train ride.....I smelled and felt gross. I walked out of the train station with a Greek girl named Elaine and could not ignore the beauty of Venice. It was 7am and it was still beautiful. The water was full of boats and the streets barely full. It looked so nice and calm, yet it made me want to go swimming. We took a boat ride to St. Marks which took us along the Grand cannal. I enjoyed seeing buildings literally with water almost in th...

Prague= The entire city looks like it has come from a book. It seems like every building has been freshly painted. The roads are full of tourist and souvenir sellers.

Amsterdam……a VERY strange city. I enjoy the fact that there are bicycles everywhere here. I am more concerned about getting run over by bicyclist than cars. In Paris, I was worried about cars and their driving after the light is red. In London, cars have the right away. Amsterdam is basically a bicycle city and I really enjoy that. The city is so small that after one day of traveling I feel as though I know my way around the city. The second I got off the tra...
