Sitting down at my favorite coffee shop in my home town of Evergreen, Colorado - planning out my six week trip to Europe. My plan is to leave here tomorrow for Malta ( a little island in the Mediterranean). The weather there is warm, so that means I can wear shorts and a T-shirt. There are lots of beaches in Malta, so I think I'll wear my new bikini for that. During my time in the country, I'll go SCUBA diving; maybe I can see some seals or brightly colored fish. Later that week, I'll go to the Plaza Shopping Center for some shopping. The week after my stay in Malta, I'm going to Switzerland for a week as well. There I'm going to go skiing; although living in Colorado, the Alps are probably just another hill. Later that week I'm going to take a chocolate factory tour, but I won't eat any of their chocolate. The climate/ weather shouldn't be too different from home, so what I need to pack is warm long sleeved shirts, long pants, a hat, gloves (for skiing), a ski jacket, warm-ups (ski pants), and maybe a sweater as well . Then I'm off to Bulgaria. I'm not really sure what to do there, but I have a full plane ride for planinng. Next stop Germany, I'll stay mostly in Berlin, where I can shop and visit museums. The weather/ climate should be a lot like Switzerland - without the ski stuff. My last stop is Sweden. My grandmother is Swedish, and I'd like to check out where my family came from. In Sweden I'm going to go to skiing, enjoy their museums, and see the St. Lucia parade in Stockholm. Well, I hate to leave with a cliff hanger, but I have to pack. Ciao!
