Rome

Hello all!
I am currently in Rome, Italy and having a wonderful time still. Today we went to the Vatican City! It was incredible! Everything inside is absolutely beautiful. It is all very detailed and extremely well done, as expected. We were in St. Peter's Basillica and we saw the Sistine Chapel. We also saw the tombs of all the popes. My favorite part was the easily the Sistine Chapel. It was just utterly breathtaking. We aren't supposed to take pictures but I totally got a picture of the really famous part of the ceiling where God is reaching out to Adam. Yesterday, I got to go to the Colloseum and the Roman Forum and the Palatine Hill. Not sure I spelled all that right, but you get the idea. The Roaman Forum and the Palatine hill took somewhere between 3-5 hours. It was huge!!! It was literally all of the downtown of ancient Rome but in ruins obviously. There was also the house of Augustus in the Ruins and that was pretty cool. Last night we saw the Trevi Fountain which aparently really famous but I had never heard of before. It was again huge and very cool. It is really hard for me to explain everything without showing you so as soon as I figure out how to put pictures up I will try and put up the thousand pics I've got. I am not exagerating by the way. I really do have over one thousand pictures so far. Tomorrow we are going to see the Pantheon and the Fountain of the 4 Rivers. Then we leave for Venice on Sunday. I probably won't be updating before that though, so I will get back soon!

From Paris to Madrid

So I am really sorry about not writing in this in the pst week. I didn´t have free internet so I couldn´t really write. Anyway, for the past several days me and all of my friends have been in Paris. We got see the Eiffel Tower, of course, the Champs Elysée(for those of you who have never heard of that google it. It´s one the most famous streets in the world), the Notre Dame, the Arc de Triumph, the Sacré Cere (sp?) and the Louvre. I have taken close to 500 pictures in France and I don´t plan on slowing down in other countries. I have had an amazing time getting to see the most beautiful church i have seen in my life and the wonderful view of the entire city from the top of it´s towers. The Arc de Triumph was absolutely breathtaking with all the detail to it. The louvre was enourmous! Unfortunately, we only had time to see the big 3; the Mona Lisa, the winged victory and the Venus de Milo. My favorite of the 3 was the Winged victory. My favorite part of france was the Notre Dame though. There was just something about it that was just awesome.

Now, however, I am in Madrid in Spain. I am not sure what we will be seeing but I am certain I will have an awesome time just like in France. (I am also really ready to stop hearing french. :) )
